Understanding GFP
Green fluorescent proteins (GFP) are intrinsically fluorescent proteins derived from bioluminescent marine organisms. GFP comprise a family of evolutionarily related proteins found in animals such as jellyfish and corals that belong to the phylum Cnidaria (stinging aquatic invertebrates).
These organisms have evolved GFP as a part of a mechanism that enables them to glow in dark ocean waters. In recent years, scientists have begun to exploit GFP as a tool to explore the internal workings of living cells. The advent of GFP technology has revolutionized cell biology by enabling researchers to visualize proteins within living cells without the need for chemical staining. |
