Dehydroergosterol
Dehydroergosterolis a naturally occurring fluorescent sterol analog (Ex/Em=325/375 nm), which mimics the properties of cholesterol in cell membranes. DehydroergosterolEasily conjugated by cholesterol-binding proteins for real-time imaging in live cells. DehydroergosterolThe sterol environment and intracellular sterol transport in vivo can be probed/elucidated in real time[1].
