CY5-L-leucine

 CY5-L-leucine/Cyanine5-L-leucine can be used to label proteins or peptides for tracking their localization or movement within cells.The fluorescent properties of CY5 make it suitable for use in microscopy applications to visualize cellular processes.As a leucine derivative, it can be incorporated into proteins where leucine would normally be found, making it useful for metabolic tracing studies.Due to its near-infrared emission, CY5-labeled compounds can be utilized in in vivo imaging applications with reduced background fluorescence.
