Abstract:
An intrinsically fluorescent protein from a Pacific jellyfish promises to become an important power tool in experimental biology. Mutant forms of this green fluorescent protein with altered spectral characteristics have recently been constructed. It is now possible to envision a range of derivatives optimized for specific applications.
