Diversity and evolution of coral fluorescent proteins. [PDF]
GFP-like fluorescent proteins (FPs) are the key color determinants in reef-building corals (class Anthozoa, order Scleractinia) and are of considerable interest as potential genetically encoded fluorescent labels.

Modeling Spectral Tuning in Red Fluorescent Proteins Using the Dipole Moment Variation upon Excitation [PDF]
We describe a model for spectral tuning in red fluorescent proteins (RFPs) based on the relation between an electronic structure descriptor, the dipole moment variation upon excitation (DMV), and the excitation energy of a protein.

Time-resolved FRET fluorescence spectroscopy of visible fluorescent protein pairs [PDF]
Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is a powerful method for obtaining information about small-scale lengths between biomacromolecules. Visible fluorescent proteins (VFPs) are widely used as spectrally different FRET pairs, where one VFP acts as a ...

Improved blue, green, and red fluorescent protein tagging vectors for S. cerevisiae.
Fluorescent protein fusions are a powerful tool to monitor the localization and trafficking of proteins. Such studies are particularly easy to carry out in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae due to the ease with which tags can be introduced into ...
