According to these results the optical density for growth curves of cells expressing this protein should be measured at 520 nm with respect to the chromoproteins eforRed (<partinfo>BBa_K1073022</partinfo>) and aeBlue (<partinfo>BBa_K1073020</partinfo>)  to avoid absorption by the proteins. Comparing all absorption spectra they all show an absorption minimum at 520 nm.

When expressed the chromoprotein amilGFP exhibits a strong yellow color. In order to avoid absorption by the chomoproteins during the measurement of the OD of bacterial cultures, the absorption and emission spectra were measured and an optimal wavelength for spectral optical density measurement was determined to be at 520nm.

iGEM Team Braunschweig 2013: Emission spectrum of chromoprotein amilGFP. This chromoprotein does show significant emission that can be detected by different optical devices with the appropriate filters.

Emission maximum of amilGFP: 515,8 nm


Although this device is working as expected, it was not used by the iGEM Team Braunschweig 2013 since with the naked eye the yellow color is not as easy to distinguish from the media as the color of other chromoproteins like eforRed (BBa_K1073022) or aeBlue (BBa_K1073020).
