GFP, Green Fluorescent Protein, its structure was solved in the late 1996. It is said to have a unique soda can. Eleven beta-strands make up the beta-barrel and an alpha-helix runs through the center. The LIGHT IN THE CAN which is located in the middle of the beta barrel is called occasionally and is referred […]

In order to be more familiar and understand microscopic substance of GFP, Green Fluorescent Protein, One must understand and learn how fluorescence microscopy works and why it has become so important to modern biology, one must understand what the term fluorescence means. Fluorescence is the luminescence of a substance when it is excited by radiation. […]

GFP also known as Green Fluorescent Protein has existed for approximately one hundred and sixty million years in one species of jellyfish. Sometime in 1994 studies showed that GFP has been cloned. Now GFP is found in laboratories all over the world where it is used in every conceivable plant and animal. Flatworms, algae, E. […]

Within the microscopic cell, proteins are said to be carrying out the duties specified by the information encoded in genes. Most biological molecules are relatively inert elements upon which proteins act, except for certain types of RNAs. The total complement of proteins expressed in a particular microscopic cell or cell type at a given time […]

Protein refers to any of a group of complex organic macromolecules that contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and usually sulfur. Proteins are composed of one or more chains of amino acids. Proteins are fundamental components of all living cells and include many substances, such as enzymes, hormones, and antibodies, that are necessary for the proper […]
