MaxLight™550 is a new Yellow-Green photostable dye conjugate comparable to Alexa Fluor™546, 555, DyLight™549 , Cy3™, TRITC and offers better labeling efficiency, brighter imaging and increased immunodetection. Absorbance (550nm); Emission (575nm); Extinction Coefficient 150,000.
The Mediator is a multiprotein coactivator that is required by DNA-binding transcription factors for activation of polymerase II (see MIM 180660)-transcribed genes. MED4 appears to be a core Mediator subunit and is found in nearly all Mediator preparations (summary by Sato et al., 2004 [PubMed 15175163]).
