C-terminal fragment (Amino acids156-236) of the monomeric[5] cyan fluorescent protein variant “Cerulean”, designed for fusion/BiFC[1,3]. Reassembly with Split-Cerulean-nCFP (Part Bba_K157006) generates the complete, working CFP “Cerulean”, whereas combination with the N-terminal fragment (Part Bba_K157008) of the monomeric yellow fluorescent Protein “Venus”[4] (Part Bba_I757008) results in green fluorescence[2].
