| Summary: | <p>Abstract</p> <p>Bioluminescent and fluorescent proteins are now used as tools for research in all organisms. There has been massive progress over the past 15 years in creating a palette of fluorescent proteins with a wide spectrum of specific properties. One of the big challenges is to decide which variant may be best for a certain application. A recent article by Mann <it>et al</it>. in <it>BMC Biotechnology </it>describes a new orange fluorescent protein in plants.</p> <p>See research article <url>http://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6750/12/17</url></p> |
