TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: A new bright green-emitting fluorescent protein – engineered monomeric and dimeric forms

Fluorescent proteins have become essential tools in molecular and biologi-cal applications. Here, we present a novel fluorescent protein isolated from warm water coral, Cyphastrea microphthalma. The protein, which we named vivid Verde fluorescent protein (VFP), matures readily at 37 C and emits bright green light. | ỊFEBS Journal A new bright green-emitting fluorescent protein -engineered monomeric and dimeric forms Robielyn P.

Received 22 December 2009 revised 5 February 2010 accepted 15 February 2010 doi Fluorescent proteins have become essential tools in molecular and biological applications. Here we present a novel fluorescent protein isolated from warm water coral Cyphastrea microphthalma. The protein which we named vivid Verde fluorescent protein VFP matures readily at 37 C and emits bright green light. Further characterizations revealed that VFP has a tendency to form dimers. By creating a homology model of VFP based on the structure of the red fluorescent protein DsRed we were able to make mutations that alter the protein s oligomerization state. We present two proteins mVFP and mVFP1 that are both exclusively monomeric and one protein dVFP which is dimeric. We characterized the spectroscopic properties of VFP and its variants in comparison with .
