Fluorescent Proteins

At the core of genetically encodable fluorescent proteins are the fluorescent proteins themselves, and over the years the diversity of the fluorescent proteins available has exploded. A similar community-editable database of fluorescent proteins and their properties can be found at FPbase.org
