The recent explosion in the diversity of available fluorescent proteins (FPs),,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
promises a wide variety of new tools for biological imaging. With no unified standard for …

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria and its homologs from
diverse marine animals are widely used as universal genetically encoded fluorescent labels …

The low photostability of fluorescent proteins is a limiting factor in many applications of
fluorescence microscopy. Here we present StayGold, a green fluorescent protein (GFP) …

Fluorescent proteins are genetically encoded, easily imaged reporters crucial in biology and
biotechnology,. When a protein is tagged by fusion to a fluorescent protein, interactions …

The cell-cycle transition from G 1 to S phase has been difficult to visualize. We have
harnessed antiphase oscillating proteins that mark cell-cycle transitions in order to develop …

Detailed analysis of neuronal network architecture requires the development of new
methods. Here we present strategies to visualize synaptic circuits by genetically labelling …

Cellular signaling networks are the foundation which determines the fate and function of
cells as they respond to various cues and stimuli. The discovery of fluorescent proteins over …

The advent of fluorescent proteins (FPs) for genetic labeling of molecules and cells has
revolutionized fluorescence microscopy. Genetic manipulations have created a vast array of …

This critical review provides an overview of the continually expanding family of fluorescent
proteins (FPs) that have become essential tools for studies of cell biology and physiology …

All organic fluorophores undergo irreversible photobleaching during prolonged illumination.
Although fluorescent proteins typically bleach at a substantially slower rate than many small …
