AnaSpec Offers Antibodies Against the Hexa-His and GFP Tags

By aliceadams on | From widepr.com
February 01, 2012 - Science Press Release   AnaSpec Eurogentec Group AnaSpec, EGT Group is pleased to offer a wide selection of high quality monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies against the hexa-His and GFP tags. The introduction of tags, whether short peptides (6X-His, DYKDDDDK, c-myc) or proteins (green fluorescent protein – GFP, glutathione-s-transferase – GST) into recombinant proteins aids in the...Read Full Story

Green Fluorescent Protein Infection on the ORA Blog

By AquaNerd on | From blog.aquanerd.com
When ORA first announced their newly redesigned website, we were stoked they would have a blog. It would be a way for them to finally communicate with a public audience. Well, right out of the gate, ORA has a great article on Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) infection in various corals they have aquacultured. The infection was discovered in the coral greenhouse and has been seen in corals such as the ORA Blue Millepora, ORA Plum Crazy, and even their Acropora efflorescens . ORA states that the...Read Full Story

Giving Proteins A New Glow: MIT Chemists Have Designed A Way To Fluorescently Label Proteins That Could Shed Light On Protein Functions Never Before Seen.

By altonparrish3 on | From nanopatentsandinnovations.blogspot.com
Since the 1990s, a green fluorescent protein known simply as GFP has revolutionized cell biology. Originally found in a Pacific Northwest jellyfish, GFP allows scientists to visualize proteins inside of cells and track them as they go about their business. Two years ago, biologists who discovered and developed the protein as a laboratory tool won a Nobel Prize for their work. However, using GFP as a fluorescent probe has one major drawback — the protein is so bulky that it can interfere...Read Full Story

Synthetic Biology: TUM Researchers Develop Novel Kind Of Fluorescent Protein

By altonparrish3 on | From nanopatentsandinnovations.blogspot.com
Proteins are the most important functional biomolecules in nature with numerous applications in life science research, biotechnology and medicine. So how can they be modified in the most effective way to attain certain desired properties? In the past, the modifications were usually carried out either chemically or via genetic engineering. The team of Professor Arne Skerra from the TUM Chair of Biological Chemistry has now developed a more elegant combined solution: By extending the...Read Full Story

Laser is produced by a living cell

By xenophilius on | From xenophilius.wordpress.com
The single-cell lasers were less than 20 millionths of a metre across A single living cell has been coaxed into producing laser light, researchers report in Nature Photonics. The technique starts by engineering a cell that can produce a light-emitting protein that was first obtained from glowing jellyfish. Flooding the resulting cells with weak blue light causes them to emit directed, green laser light. The work may have applications in improved microscope imaging and light-based...Read Full Story
