Revision as of 23:08, 16 October 2014
The following fluorescent proteins have been used with consistent results in MP: [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K165005 Venus YFP], MRFP1 and eGFP.
A range of localisation tags can be added to enable to distinguish sources of expression and to visualise individual cells and nuclei. These include: [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1484104 N7] and [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1484106 LTI].
These can be added instead of the stop codon for the reporters
These are clearly visible under fluorescent microscopes and confocal microscopy. Sample images include:
