Deskripsi
Fluorescent protein reporters based on GFP exist, but have intrinsic disadvantages. Here the authors incorporate pH, Ca2+ and protein–protein interaction sensing modalities into de novo designed mini-fluorescence-activating proteins (mFAPs), with increased photostability and smaller size, which bind a range of DFHBI chromophore variants.
