Bright red fluorescent protein created
After years of trying, biologists have succeeded in creating an extremely bright red fluorescent protein in the lab. This is good news for researchers, including cancer and stem cell researchers, who use fluorescent proteins to track essential cellular processes.
The researchers at the University of Amsterdam & Institut de Biologie structurale and the European Synchrotron in Grenoble describe their approach in the latest edition of the journal Nature Methods. Nature Methods.

LCAM-FNWI operates directly under the research group Molecular Cytology at the University of Amsterdam. Here you will find a wide range of instrumentation for fluorescence-, confocal-, super-resolution & living cell microscopy combined with equipment for functional imaging.
LCAM has become a Euro-BioImaging Flaghship centre for Functional Imaging and High Content Microscopy.
