Cy5-mucin

Cy5-mucin/cyanine5-mucin refers to a fluorescently-labeled form of mucin, a type of glycoprotein that is a major component of mucus secretions in various tissues and organs. The addition of the Cy5 fluorophore to mucin allows for its visualization and tracking within cells or tissues using fluorescence microscopy techniques. This labeling technique enables researchers to study the distribution, localization, and interaction of mucin in biological systems. It can provide valuable insights into mucin biology, mucin-related diseases, and the dynamics of mucus production and secretion.
