Abstract excerpt
LOV-based fluorescent proteins (FPs) are an alternative class of fluorescent reporters with unique properties which complement the well-established proteins of the GFP family. One of the most important features of LOV-based FPs is the independence of molecular oxygen for the development of their specific fluorescence. Furthermore, they are characterized by small size and rapid signal development. Over the last...
