TPE-MI
Based on 18 publication(s) in Google Scholar
TPE-MI (Tetraphenylethene maleimide) is a thiol probe for measuring unfolded protein load and proteostasis in cells (the excitation wavelength is 350 nm and the emission wavelength is 470 nm). TPE-MI can report imbalances in proteostasis in induced pluripotent stem cell models of Huntington disease, as well as cells transfected with mutant Huntington exon 1 before the formation of visible aggregates. TPE-MI also detects protein damage following dihydroartemisinin research of the malaria parasites Plasmodium falciparum .

Guide (The following is our recommended protocol. This protocol is only a guide and should be modified according to your specific needs).
1. Preparation of Dye Stock Solution[1]
1.1 Dissolve TPE-MI in DMSO to prepare a stock solution.
Note: It is recommended to aliquot the TPE-MI stock solution and store it at -20℃ or -80℃ protected from light.
2. Preparation of Dye Working Solution
2.1 Dilute the TPE-MI stock solution to a working concentration of 50 μM with PBS.
Note: Please adjust the concentration of the TPE-MI working solution according to the actual situation, and prepare it fresh for each use.
3. Specific Staining Steps
3.1 Cell Culture Preparation: Seed the cells in a suitable culture container.
3.2 Washing: Wash cells with PBS.
3.3 Staining: Add 50 μM TPE-MI working solution to the cells and incubate at 37 °C for 30 min.
4. Detection
Flow Cytometry Detection: Remove the TPE-MI solution, digest the cells, resuspend in PBS, centrifuge, discard the supernatant, and resuspend the cells in PBS for analysis.
SDS-PAGE Detection: Lyse stained cells with cell lysis buffer, determine protein concentration, and perform SDS-PAGE electrophoresis followed by fluorescence and Coomassie Brilliant Blue staining analysis.
