Characteristics of the protein coding sequence
Enhanced green fluorescent protein
EN
Enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) is a variant of the wild-type green fluorescent protein (GFP) that has been modified for better optical visibility in cells. The protein exhibits a single excitation peak at 490 nm. Compared to GFP, eGFP has a greater intensity emission and improved folding efficiency at 37℃. The sequence differs from GFP by the replacements of phenylalanine for leucine at amino acid position 64 and serine for threonine at position 65.
