3G eBFP2
3G eBFP2 coding sequence flanked by prefix sticky end C and suffix sticky end D in a 3G-compatible backbone. For more information on 3G hybrid DNA assembly and 3G parts, see the [http://2018.igem.org/Team:William_and_Mary/Part_Collection William and Mary 3G Parts Page].
Description
This is an enhanced blue fluorescent protein with an excitation maximum of 363nm and an emission maximum of 448nm.[1] Engineered in Ai et al. 2007 through "rounds of random mutagenesis and screening."[2] Ai et al. 2007 describes eBFP2 as "a variant that is 4-fold brighter and 550-fold more photostable than EBFP."[2].
The paper does warn that eBFP2 "may retain wild-type GFP’s tendency to dimerize at high concentrations. However, it has been suggested that the A206V “superfolder” mutation of EBFP2 could hinder dimerization."[2]
Two figures from Ai et al. 2007:
Above: "Spectral characterization of new variants. Shown in each panel are the absorbance (green), excitation (black), and emission (red) spectra for the indicated protein."[2]
