Researchers produce new red and green fluorescent proteins.

Hank Hogan, Contributing Editor

Fluorescent proteins are essential tools for probing and understanding biochemical processes as they happen. And as any mechanic or handyman knows, you have to have the right tool for the job. That is why research into the development of new fluorescent proteins continues and is so important. A look at the efforts of three groups shows that some of the latest advances involve a new and brighter red fluorescent protein, a simpler but more versatile green fluorescent protein and the linking of optical output to structure. Such advances could have a significant impact on future biological...Read full article
