A green fluorescent protein containing a QFG tri-peptide chromophore: optical properties and X-ray crystal structure.

A green fluorescent protein containing a QFG tri-peptide chromophore: optical properties and X-ray crystal structure.

Rtms5 is an deep blue weakly fluorescent GFP-like protein ([Formula: see text], 592 nm; [Formula: see text], 630nm; Φ(F), 0.004) that contains a (66)Gln-Tyr-Gly chromophore tripeptide sequence. We investigated the optical properties and structure of two variants, Rtms5(Y67F) and Rtms5(Y67F/H146S) in...
