Fluorescent proteins from copepoda species and methods for using same

摘要: The present invention provides nucleic acid molecules encoding a fluorescent and proteins mutants, homologues derivatives thereof, as well peptides encoded by these acids. of interest are isolated from Copepoda species. Also that substantially similar to, or derivatives, homologues, mutants of, the above-referenced specific proteins. provided fragments acids thereby, antibodies to invention. In addition, host-cells, stable cell lines transgenic organisms comprising provided. subject protein compositions find use in variety different applications methods, particularly for labeling biomolecules, organelles. Finally, kits such methods
