PAmCHERRY is a photoactivatable red fluorescent protein. PAmCherry fluoresces when exposed to 350–400 nm light while does not fluoresce at other wavelengths. It is used a reporter tag; by expressing in cells or localizing to sub-cellular locations, one can gain spatial information within the cell by track organelles, proteins, and the whole cell itself.  One can visualize the photoactivated PAmCherry with the same filter sets used for other red fluorescent proteins.

Synthesized in house. Coding sequence was obtained from an engineered version of mCherry, documented in Subach et al., 2009. Of the multiple versions of PAmCherry described in the paper, we synthesized PAmCherry2.
