20130171677 | RECOMBINANT PHYCOBILIPROTEINS WITH ENHANCED FLUORESCENCE AND PHOTOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES - Novel fluorescent phycobiliprotein fusion proteins and methods of use are described. The novel phycobiliproteins can be produced in a cell comprising two or more heterodimeric lyases, an apoprotein and a bilin reductase, which components react to form the phycobiliprotein fusion protein. Also described are phycobiliprotein based transcription reporter cells and assays, which cells conditionally express a heterologous, fluorescent, phycobiliprotein domain even in anoxic conditions. | 07-04-2013 |
