A genetically encoded Ca2+ indicator based on circularly permutated sea anemone red fluorescent protein eqFP578

Abstract Background Genetically encoded calcium ion (Ca2+) indicators (GECIs) are indispensable tools for measuring Ca2+ dynamics and neuronal activities in vitro and in vivo. Red fluorescent protein (RFP)-based GECIs have inherent advantages relative to green fluorescent protein-based GECIs due to...
