Description:
Since the discovery of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria, a multitude of fluorescent proteins have been derived from the original GFP and its homologs by protein engineering. Their characteristics were especially adapted to the requirements of different types of live-cell fluorescence microscopy. This includes super-resolution microscopy techniques, which overcome the diffraction barrier by distinguishing fluorophores based on different molecular states. Fluorescent proteins in the subclass of reversibly switchable fluorescent proteins (RSFPs) can be s...
