GFP fluorescence: A few lesser-known nuggets that make it work
Abstract
Use of Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) as a marker has revolutionized biological research in the last few decades. In this brief commentary, we reflect upon the success story of GFP and highlight a few lesser-known facets about GFP that add up to its usefulness.
