It’s not all that surprising to see flashing blue lights in the red light district—unless you are talking cell biology. In the January 11 Nature Chemical Biology, researchers led by Vladislav ...

Due to the 4-hour maturation half-life of the Timer protein's blue-to-red chromophore, we can detect reactivated or recently silenced proviruses with high sensitivity using Timer fluorescence.

You have full access to this article via your institution. The DsRed-based reporter also can be used for ascertaining whether a stimulus has similar effects on the kinetics of promoter induction or ...

Live samples are intrinsically highly dynamic, yet techniques to monitor these complex environments usually reflect snapshots, thus making time-lapse imaging necessary to explore temporal progression ...

Fluorescent proteins are invaluable tools for measuring the abundance and trafficking of other proteins in a cell. A bigger challenge has been to monitor a protein’s life cycle—its intracellular ...

A fluorescent tag, commonly referred to as a label or probe, is a fluorophore that may be used to determine the distribution and quantity of a particular target biomolecule both in vitro and in vivo, ...

The amount of proteins inside cells fluctuate over time and this affects various functions of the cells themselves. Cells are constantly synthesizing and degrading proteins, and studies have shown ...
