Osamu Shimomura, Martin Chalfie and Roger
Y. Tsien were awarded 2008 with Nobel Prize in chemistry for their discovery and development of the green fluorescent protein GFP
-
Since 1962 GFP has become one of the most
important tools used in contemporary bioscience
-
With the aid of GFP, researchers have
developed ways to watch processes that were previously invisible, such as the development of nerve cells in the brain or how cancer cells spread
-
By using DNA technology, researchers can
now connect GFP to other interesting, but otherwise invisible, proteins
-
Solely the patented SPDMphymod technoloy
can use this well established GFP
-
No need for establishing new systems with
photoactivatable GFP
