Abstract excerpt
Fluorescent proteins homologous to green fluorescent protein (avGFP) display pronounced spectral variability due to different chromophore structures and variable chromophore interactions with the surrounding amino acids. To gain insight into the structural basis for yellow emission, the 3D structure of phiYFP (λ(em)=537 nm), a protein from the sea medusa Phialidium sp., was built by a combined homology modeling -...
