The BOK/CCP2 FISH Probe Kit is designed to detect the human BOK gene located on chromosome band 2q37.3, along with the number of chromosome 2 copies per cell. Abnormalities in BOK – also known as BOKL or BCL2L9 – occur in a variety of cancers including testicular, colorectal, lung including other malignancies.

The probe is labeled with CytoOrange and CytoGreen. CytoOrange is a fluorophore with an excitation peak at 551 nm and emission peak at 575 nm, giving it an orange fluorescent signal with an appropriate filter; CytoGreen has an excitation peak at 495 nm and emission peak at 518 nm, giving it an green fluorescent signal with an appropriate filter.
