RNA Translation Imaging Services

mRNA translation is a key step in gene expression, which allows the genetic information carried by the mRNA to flow into the protein. mRNA translation is regulated by a variety of factors and gene specificity. The accurate operation of this process can ensure the expression of proteins in cells, which is essential for maintaining cell functions. Therefore, the development of imaging methods that can visually analyze the translation of a single mRNA in living cells has become a research hotspot.

RNA Translation Imaging Analysis

CD BioSciences has been committed to the research and development of fluorescent probes and living cell imaging technology for many years. In order to study translation heterogeneity and translation kinetics, we used high-affinity probes and single-molecule microscopes to image the translation kinetics of a single RNA in living cells and quantify the process of synthesizing nascent polypeptide chains from a single mRNA.

RNA Translation Imaging Analysis Workflow

The following are the specific steps of RNA translation imaging analysis:

Step 1

Fill in the online form to submit your requirements for RNA translation imaging analysis.

Step 2

Send us the DNA / RNA / mRNA that need to be imaged and analyzed.

Step 3

We use high-affinity probes and single-molecule microscopes to image the translation kinetics of a single RNA in living cells

Step 4

After the experiment is completed, we will send the sample and experimental data to you.
