Glycine Insertion Makes Yellow Fluorescent Protein Sensitive to Hydrostatic Pressure
Fluorescent protein-based indicators for intracellular environment conditions such as pH and ion concentrations are commonly used to study the status and dynamics of living cells. Despite being an important factor in many biological processes, the development of an indicator for the physicochemical state of water, such as pressure, viscosity and temperature, however, has been neglected. We here...
متن کاملYellow light emission of Vibrio fischeri strain Y-1: purification and characterization of the energy-accepting yellow fluorescent protein.
A strain of luminous bacteria, Vibrio fischeri Y-1, emits yellow light rather than the blue-green emission typical of other luminous bacteria. The yellow emission has been postulated previously to result from energy transfer from an electronically excited species formed in the bacterial luciferase-catalyzed reaction to a secondary emitter protein, termed the yellow fluorescent protein (YFP). We...
متن کاملYellow fluorescent protein phiYFPv (Phialidium): structure and structure-based mutagenesis.
The yellow fluorescent protein phiYFPv (λem(max) ≃ 537 nm) with improved folding has been developed from the spectrally identical wild-type phiYFP found in the marine jellyfish Phialidium. The latter fluorescent protein is one of only two known cases of naturally occurring proteins that exhibit emission spectra in the yellow-orange range (535-555 nm). Here, the crystal structure of phiYFPv has ...

متن کاملVisualization of differential gene expression by improved cyan fluorescent protein and yellow fluorescent protein production in Bacillus subtilis.
The distinguishable cyan and yellow fluorescent proteins (CFP and YFP) enable the simultaneous in vivo visualization of different promoter activities. Here, we report new cloning vectors for the construction of cfp and yfp fusions in Bacillus subtilis. By extending the N-terminal portions of previously described CFP and YFP variants, 20- to 70-fold-improved fluorescent-protein production was ac...
