Sentences with phrase «fluorescent protein coding»

Not exact matches

To determine whether their method had succeeded, the researchers inserted plasmids carrying a gene that codes for a green fluorescent protein.

The new AAV vectors can also deliver genes that code for colorful fluorescent proteins; such proteins are useful in identifying and labeling cells.

Imaging techniques that rely on light — such as taking pictures of cells tagged with a «reporter gene» that codes for green fluorescent protein — only work in tissue samples removed from the body.

Masaru Okabe, a biologist at Osaka University in Japan, engineered these green mice by injecting into mouse embryos a jellyfish gene that codes for a glowing protein called green fluorescent protein.

Approach: Wu's group used Brainbow, a transgenic technique originally devised to map individual neurons in the brain, to label cells stochastically using gene cassettes that code for four uniquely expressed fluorescent proteins.

CRISPR / Cas9 and related tools can now be used in new ways, such as changing a single nucleotide base — a single letter in the genetic code — or adding a fluorescent protein to tag a spot in the DNA that scientists want to track.

The kit includes lyophilized Xfect Transfection Reagent and gesicle packaging mixes which contain coding sequences for the nanovesicle - inducing glycoprotein, Cas9 endonuclease, and CherryPicker red fluorescent protein.

For the purpose of their study, the researchers inserted a gene coding for fluorescent protein in the worms that, when activated, made them glow brightly under ultraviolet light.

The remaining cassette can invert as long as Cre remains expressed; once Cre is removed from the system, the fluorescent protein whose coding sequence is closest to the promoter will be expressed.

To accomplish this, we used homologous recombination to ablate nonmuscle myosin heavy chain (NMHC) II - B by inserting cDNA encoding green fluorescent protein (GFP)- NMHC II - A into the first coding exon of the Myh10 gene, thereby placing GFP - NMHC II - A under control of the endogenous II - B promoter.

Probing unnatural amino acid integration into enhanced green fluorescent protein by genetic code expansion with a high - throughput screening platform.
