The green fluorescent protein (GFP) is a protein that exhibits green fluorescence when exposed to light in the blue to ultraviolet range. [2][3] The label GFP traditionally refers to the protein first isolated from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria and is sometimes called avGFP.

2008年10月8日 · The very aptly named green fluorescent protein — or GFP as it is almost universally known — is a barrel-shaped protein made up of 238 amino acids.

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.

A brief personal perspective is provided for green fluorescent protein (GFP), covering the period 1994–2011. The topics discussed are primarily those in which my research group has made a contribution and include structure and function of the GFP ...

The native green fluorescent protein (GFP), first so named by Morin and Hastings (1971 ab), from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria (Shimomura et al., 1962) contains 238 amino acids (Prasher et al., 1992).

In this article, you will learn about green fluorescent protein (GFP)’s functions and variations, and its ever-expanding biotechnological applications. You will also explore the biochemical mechanisms behind bioluminescence.

Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) refers to a protein isolated from the jellyfish (Aequorea victoria) that can be used as a reporter to trace lineages and determine cell fate in mouse and other model organisms.
