General description

N-terminal HIS-tagged fusion protein corresponding to full-length Green Fluorescent Protein, expressed in E. coli. Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is a cytoplasmic protein found in jellyfish Aequorea Victoria.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is genetically fused to many proteins in various species to generate non-reactive chimeras which are known to preserve their original biological activity as well as the fluorescent properties of native GFP. GFP acts as a reporter for gene expression and as a fusion tag for protein localization studies in live cells. It serves as a spectroscopic and microscopic probe to understand the biological functions of various systems. GFP is highly stable and can serve as a tool for in vitro studies.

Physical form

PBS containing 20% glycerol.

Preparation Note

1 year at -20°C

Analysis Note

Routinely evaluated as a standard on protein gels and western immunoblots, for calibration of fluorometers, and microinjection into cells and tissues.
