amilGFP, yellow chromoprotein
This chromoprotein from the coral Acropora millepora, amilGFP, naturally exhibits strong yellow color when expressed. The color is readily visible to naked eye both in LB-culture and on agar plates. Color development can be seen in less than 24 hours of incubation. The DNA was provided by Jeffrey Miller at UCLA, and was made BioBrick-compatible after removal of two illegal internal restriction sites (EcoRI and PstI).
