Cell Painting Tools (Paints)

mNeon Green and Montana Paintbrush Red fluorescent proteins targeted to subcellular domains

Montana Molecular’s live cell painting tools – Paints – are a suite of fluorescent proteins targeted to subcellular domains. These tools enable visualization of subcellular structures and cell morphology in the context of drug discovery and disease research. Use the brightly fluorescent, organelle-targeted Paints to investigate drug effects, monitor metabolic activities, and identify disease-associated phenotypes.

  • Packaged in a BacMam viral vector for consistent, titratable expression in a wide range of cell types – including many primary and iPSC cultures
  • Easily co-transduce red and green fluorescent Paints, biosensors, and other BacMam-packaged constructs
  • Capture multiple timepoints in a single well
  • No fixation, staining, or cell lysis required
