Retracing evolution of red fluorescence in GFP-like proteins from Faviina corals.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Feb 2010

Field Steven F, Matz Mikhail V

Abstract excerpt

Proteins of the green fluorescent protein family represent a convenient experimental model to study evolution of novelty at the molecular level. Here, we focus on the origin of Kaede-like red fluorescent proteins characteristic of the corals of the Faviina suborder. We demonstrate, using an original approach involving resurrection and analysis of the library of possible evolutionary intermediates, that it takes...
