Fluorescent protein labeling refers to the covalent binding or physical adsorption of fluorescent substances onto a certain group of the molecule to be studied, and the qualitative, localization, and quantitative analysis of the labeled object using fluorescence properties.

Category:

Green fluorescent proteins: such as mGFP5 and EGFP, have high fluorescence intensity and are suitable for observing live cells.

Red fluorescent protein: such as the deep red fluorescent protein cultivated by Moscow researchers, which has strong penetrability and is suitable for observing the depths of living organisms.

Other colors of fluorescent proteins: including blue, yellow, orange, etc. Fluorescent proteins of different spectral types vary in brightness, photostability, and molecular size, and can be selected according to experimental needs.
