Blue Fluorescent Protein (mTagBFP)

This part codes for the bright blue fluorescent protein mTagBFP. mTagBFP is a monomeric protein with a narrow fluorescence emission spectrum with a maximum at 456 nm. It has a tyrosine-based chromophore, giving it substantially higher brightness, faster chromophore maturation and higher pH stability than blue fluorescent proteins with a histidine in the chromophore. Subach et. al. started with a red fluorescent protein (TagRFP) and converted it to a bright blue monomeric protein. See the article listed in source. The sequence has been codon optimized for expression in E coli by DNA 2.0.

Monomeric BFP: Blue Fluorescent Protein. Excitation peak: 399 nm. Emission peak: 456 nm. Maturation Half-Time (min): 13. Relative brightness to EBFP2: 1.82. Extinction Coefficient (M-1 cm-1): 52000. Quantum Yield: 0.63.
