Split Green Fluorescent Proteins: Scope, Limitations, and Outlook. [PDF]
Many proteins can be split into fragments that spontaneously reassemble, without covalent linkage, into a functional protein. For split green fluorescent proteins (GFPs), fragment reassembly leads to a fluorescent readout, which has been widely used to ...

Imaging individual green fluorescent proteins [PDF]
Recent advances in fluorescence microscopy techniques have allowed the video-time imaging of single molecules of fluorescent dyes covalently bound to proteins in aqueous environments1. However, the techniques have not been exploited fully because proteins can be difficult to label, and dye modification may cause partial or complete loss of activity ...

Red fluorescent proteins engineered from green fluorescent proteins. [PDF]
Fluorescent proteins (FPs) form a fluorophore through autocatalysis from three consecutive amino acid residues within a polypeptide chain. The two major groups, green FPs (GFPs) and red FPs (RFPs), have distinct fluorophore structures; RFPs have an extended π-conjugation system with an additional double bond.

Incomplete proteasomal degradation of green fluorescent proteins in the context of tandem fluorescent protein timers. [PDF]
Tandem fluorescent protein timers (tFTs) report on protein age through time-dependent change in color, which can be exploited to study protein turnover and trafficking.

The coherent dynamics of photoexcited green fluorescent proteins [PDF]
The coherent dynamics of vibronic wave packets in the green fluorescent protein is reported. At room temperature the non-stationary dynamics following impulsive photoexcitation displays an oscillating optical transmissivity pattern with components at 67 ...

Improved split fluorescent proteins for endogenous protein labeling [PDF]
Split fluorescent proteins (FPs) have been widely used to visualise proteins in cells. Here the authors develop a screen for engineering new split FPs, and report a yellow-green split-mNeonGreen2 with reduced background, a red split-sfCherry2 for ...

Some Secrets of Fluorescent Proteins: Distinct Bleaching in Various Mounting Fluids and Photoactivation of cyan fluorescent proteins at YFP-Excitation [PDF]
Background The use of spectrally distinct variants of green fluorescent protein (GFP) such as cyan or yellow mutants (CFP and YFP, respectively) is very common in all different fields of life sciences, e.g. for marking specific proteins or cells
