It is a naturally fluorescent protein from algae and is composed of a 240 kD protein covalently linked to a number of fluorophores called phycobilins. Its exceptional fluorescence characteristics make it a perfect positive control for intracellular protein delivery using OZ Biosciences Pro-DeliverIN reagent. R-phycoerythrin is provided at a 100 μg/ml concentration in DPBS pH 7,4.
