Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for labeling, separating and analyzing proteins, particularly a specific protein of interest within a cell lysate or in a mixture of proteins. The proteins are labeled with an amine reactive or thiol reactive fluorescent dye, or an amine reactive fluorogenic reagent that becomes fluorescent upon reacting to amine groups located on the protein. Following the labeling step, the proteins within the mixture can be separated and analyzed. In a further embodiment, a tag binding fluorogenic reagent that can bind to a tag on a tagged protein is added to specifically label the protein of interest.

Abstract: The invention is based on the discovery that certain biarsenical molecules react with specified target sequences, thereby providing a facile means for labeling polypeptides containing the target sequence. The invention is useful in creating stable mammalian cell lines expressing a certain tetracysteine tagged polypeptides, thereby overcoming toxicity associated with native tetracysteine. In addition, the invention allows for orthogonal labeling of polypeptides, thereby allowing for the observation of protein-protein interactions and conformational changes in proteins, for example.

Abstract: Methods, compositions, and kits for labeling tetracysteine-tagged proteins with biarsenical fluorophores with increased specificity, including compositions, methods and kits particularly adapted for labeling of tetracysteine-tagged proteins to be resolved within an electrophoresis gel.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a novel system and methods for expressing exogenous genes, such as genes encoding fluorescent proteins, in mammalian cells. In one embodiment of this system and methods, a gene essential for viral infectivity or replication in cell culture is deleted or inactivated in the genome of a non-mammalian DNA virus. The exogenous gene operably linked to a mammalian promoter is then inserted into the non-replicative non-mammalian DNA virus. The non-replicative virus is propagated in a host cell that expresses in trans the deleted or inactivated gene or a functional homolog.
