Nearly all cyan fluorescent proteins are generated on the basis of GFP-like proteins from jellyfish Aequorea macrodactyla. mCyan is an enhanced version of the cyan flourescent protein. The cyan spectral region is from 470 up to 500 nm. mCFP has higher brightness level, acid insensivity and greater photostability. Like GFP, CFP can be used as a reporter gene. So it can be used in vitro for cell culture experiments. In our viral vector system, CFP is used as gene of interest in the vector plasmid. In this content, it is able to detect the efficiency of the constructed viral particles.
