To examine whether F46L favors any other Aequorea GFP variants, we introduced F46L into enhanced versions of fluorescent proteins of blue, cyan, and green (Clontech Laboratories, Palo Alto ...

We report a monomeric yellow-green fluorescent protein, mNeonGreen, derived from a tetrameric fluorescent protein from the cephalochordate Branchiostoma lanceolatum. mNeonGreen is the brightest ...

A fluorescent biosensor is the first to quantify the ionic strength inside living cells (ACS Chem. Biol. 2017, DOI: 10.1021/acschembio.7b00348). The sensor could enable cell biologists to follow ...

That protein was green and came from a fluorescent jellyfish. By tinkering with that green protein, blue, turquoise and yellow variants followed. In the 2000s, a red fluorescent protein was discovered ...

They then leveraged the method for protein engineering to develop the most photostable yellow fluorescent protein reported to date. "We basically developed a platform that allows one to screen for ...

Yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) is a mutant variant of GFP. In this case, a mutation was introduced after the discovery that threonine residue was present near the chromophore in GFP. To bring ...

Palo Alto, Calif.-based BD Biosciences-Clontech added this first generation fluorescent protein, DsRed1, to its Living Colors™ series—joining green, yellow, and cyan fluorescent variants to form a ...

By tinkering with that green protein, scientists were able to develop blue, turquoise and yellow variants in the years that followed. In the 2000s a red fluorescent protein was discovered in corals.

The five fluorescent proteins, or colors, typically used to tag these structures are BFP (Blue Fluorescent Protein), ECFP (Cyan Fluorescent Protein), GFP (Green Fluorescent Protein), mVenus ...

Examples of fluorophores are Venus and yellow fluorescent protein (YFP). Labeling of proteins in which the BiFC segments are bonded to the amino- or carboxyl-terminals of the selected protein.

The research team genetically engineered probes consisting of a segment of the RA receptor fused to cyan and yellow fluorescent proteins, and then expressed these proteins in zebrafish embryos.

Its muscle fibers produce the first fluorescent protein identified in a vertebrate, researchers report in Cell. Fluorescent proteins are as standard a tool for cell biologists as wrenches are for ...
