Fluorescence: Proteins & Applications

Description

This lecture covers the discovery of fluorescent proteins, focusing on the green fluorescent protein (GFP) and its structure. It explains how GFP revolutionized cell biology by enabling the monitoring of cellular processes using optical microscopy. The advantages of fluorescent proteins, such as easy observation in cells after transfection and the possibility of inserting the GFP gene into living organisms, are also discussed.
