General description

7-Aminoactinomycin D (7-ADD), an analog of actinomycin D (AD) is a membrane-impermeable red fluorescent DNA dye. It can selectively bind GC regions of DNA. 7-ADD is used in flow cytometry to differentiate between viable, apoptotic, and late apoptotic/dead cells. This DNA stain finds its application in chromosome analysis, cell cycle studies, and quantification of apoptosis.
Chemical structure: peptide

Application

7-Aminoactinomycin D has been used:
  • for nuclei visualization in mouse tail skin
  • as a nuclear stain in imaging flow cytometry for nucleus-protein colocalization
  • in flow cytometry to determine the level of CD16 (Fc gamma III receptor) and CD32 (Fc gamma II receptor) in epidermal cells

증식하는 세포에서 세포 주기는 4단계로 구성됩니다. Gap 1(G1)은 유사분열과 세포 성장을 특징으로 하는 DNA 복제 사이의 기간입니다. DNA 복제는 합성(S)기에 일어나며, 세포 분열을 위한 성장 및 준비를 하는 Gap 2(G2)가 뒤따릅니다. 이 세 단계는 함께 세포주기의 간기 단계를 구성합니다. 간기 이후에 분열(M)기가 뒤따릅니다.

Cell cycle phases (G1, S, G2, M) regulate cell growth, DNA replication, and division in proliferating cells.
