There are few scientific methods more elegantly simple than "just sprinkle it on top." Researchers at Tohoku University and ...

Nerves look blue in the reconstructed view of a genetically engineered mouse (left) whose neurons produce a fluorescent ...

We present the results of quantum chemical calculations of the electronic properties of the anionic form of the green fluorescent protein chromophore in the gas phase. The vertical detachment energy ...

It has been over 60 years since Osamu Shimomura et al. discovered Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) 1. Since then, the color palette for fluorescent proteins has been extended to span blue through to ...

A research group has developed a technology for mass-producing uniform artificial cells (lipid bilayer vesicles) with artificial model nuclei using microfluidic devices with high reproducibility. They ...

All the latest science news on green fluorescent protein from Phys.org. Find the latest news, advancements, and breakthroughs.

Certain synthetic analogues of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) chromophore are almost nonfluorescent in dilute solutions but are strongly light-emissive in the solid state, thus exhibiting ...
