Origin of the Intrinsic Fluorescence of the Green Fluorescent Protein [PDF]
Green fluorescent protein, GFP, has revolutionized biology, due to its use in bioimaging. It is widely accepted that the protein environment makes its chromophore fluoresce, whereas the fluorescence is completely lost when the native chromophore is taken out of GFP.

Photochromicity and Fluorescence Lifetimes of Green Fluorescent Protein [PDF]
The green fluorescent protein (GFP) of the bioluminescent jellyfish Aequorea and its mutants have gained widespread usage as an indicator of structure and function within cells. Proton transfer has been implicated in the complex photophysics of the wild-type molecule, exhibiting a protonated A species excited at 400 nm, and two deprotonated excited ...

Rational engineering of ratiometric calcium sensors with bright green and red fluorescent proteins
Zhang, Redington & Gong develop FRET-based ratiometric calcium sensors with pairs of green and red fluorescent proteins. Their best performers, Twitch-GR and Twitch-NR inherit the superior photophysical properties of their constituent fluorescent ...

Imaging the Environment of Green Fluorescent Protein [PDF]
An emerging theme in cell biology is that cell surface receptors need to be considered as part of supramolecular complexes of proteins and lipids facilitating specific receptor conformations and distinct distributions, e.g., at the immunological synapse. Thus, a new goal is to develop bioimaging that not only locates proteins in live cells but can also

Screening by coral green fluorescent protein (GFP)-like chromoproteins supports a role in photoprotection of zooxanthellae [PDF]
Green fluorescent protein (GFP)-like pigments are responsible for the vivid colouration of many reef-building corals and have been proposed to act as photoprotectants.

Using photoactivatable fluorescent protein Dendra2 to track protein movement
Photoactivatable fluorescent proteins are capable of dramatic changes in fluorescent properties in response to specific light irradiation. For example, they can be converted from cyan to green, or from green to red, or from nonfluorescent to a brightly ...
