Green fluorescent protein tagging: A novel tool in biomedical research
In recent years, the green fluorescent protein (GFP) isolated from the jellyfish, Aequorea victoria, has become a novel tool in biomedical research. The tagging of GFP to proteins of interest has widely been used in studies involving various biological events both in vitro and in vivo. In this report, the authors demonstrate the utility of GFP tagging for studying localization of protein kinase...
متن کاملEngineering a Novel Multifunctional Green Fluorescent Protein Tag for a Wide Variety of Protein Research
BACKGROUND Genetically encoded tag is a powerful tool for protein research. Various kinds of tags have been developed: fluorescent proteins for live-cell imaging, affinity tags for protein isolation, and epitope tags for immunological detections. One of the major problems concerning the protein tagging is that many constructs with different tags have to be made for different applications, which...
متن کاملGreen fluorescent protein as a signal for protein-protein interactions.
Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is autofluorescent. This property has made GFP useful in monitoring in vivo activities such as gene expression and protein localization. We find that GFP can be used in vitro to reveal and characterize protein-protein interactions. The interaction between the S-peptide and S-protein fragments of ribonuclease A was chosen as a model system. GFP-tagged S-peptide wa...
متن کاملGenetically Engineered Mesenchymal Stem Cells Stably Expressing Green Fluorescent Protein
Objective(s) Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are nonhematopoietic stromal cells that are capable of differentiating into and contribute to the regeneration of mesenchymal tissues. Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are ideal targets in cell transplantation and tissue engineering. Enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) has been an important reporter gene for gene therapy. The aim of this stu...
متن کاملThe green fluorescent protein.
In just three years, the green fluorescent protein (GFP) from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria has vaulted from obscurity to become one of the most widely studied and exploited proteins in biochemistry and cell biology. Its amazing ability to generate a highly visible, efficiently emitting internal fluorophore is both intrinsically fascinating and tremendously valuable. High-resolution crystal s...
