Proteins play a key role in the life sciences — from basic research and biotechnological applications to the development and ...

The discovery of DsRed (and other Anthozoa fluorescent proteins of various hues) had a twofold impact on the fluorescent protein engineering community. First, there is now a relatively diverse ...

Fluorescent proteins have come along way since the discovery of GFP from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria in the early 1960s. Today, both natural and engineered fluorescent proteins come in a ...

Scientists are exploring how jellyfish and algae could power the future. Discover how bio-solar and ocean wave energy might ...

The research team specifically asked their model to generate a new green fluorescent protein—other such proteins, which fluoresce under ultraviolet light, are often used as markers. The team ...

1 This was the first example of a light-activated protein, which they called a photoprotein. I wanted to have a tool like this. I thought this would be wonderful. —Martin Chalfie, Columbia University ...

Glioblastoma stem cells with fluorescent labeling for prion protein (red), CD44 protein (green), and cell nucleus (blue) ...

Poeschla and colleagues used a modified virus to transfer the green fluorescent protein gene into cat egg cells. The green marker allowed them to visualize their real target: a monkey-derived protein ...
