green fluorescent protein
green fluorescent protein[¦grēn flə¦res·ənt ′prō‚tēn] (cell and molecular biology) A protein that is produced by the bioluminescent jellyfish Aequorea victoria ; used to trace the synthesis, location, and movement of proteins of interest in cell biology research. Abbreviated GFP. green fluorescent protein
An intrinsically fluorescent protein from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria; gene fusions with GFP may be used to localize proteins by fluorescence microscopy or can be integrated into cloned organisms to highlight tissues of interestgreen fluorescent protein (GFP) a PROTEIN, derived from a JELLYFISH, that fluoresces in ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT. The GENE encoding GFP has been isolated and is being used as a REPORTER GENE, since it can be assayed in real time, non-destructively.AcronymsSeeGFP |
