General Info
GFP ribbon diagram. From PDB 1EMA.
- Originally discovered and characterized in the jellyfish Aeqorea victoria
- wtGFP sequence on NCBI
- 238 amino acids
- The tertiary structure is a fluorophore [Ser(65)-Tyr(66)-Gly(67)] nestled inside a protective beta barrel.
- Oxygen is required for maturation of the fluorophore
- Natural state is a dimer with a Kd of ~ 100 µM.
GFP Variants
- GFPmut2 - S65A, V68L, S72A [1]
- GFPmut3b - S65G, S72A [1]
- GFPmut3* - mutations from wt: S2R,S65G,S72A
- This is GFPmut3b with an accidental mutation at position 2 that doesn't affect function according to the authors.[2]
- Emerald - F64L, S65T, S72A, N149K, M153T, I167T
- EGFP - inserted GTG as second codon, F64L, S65T + optimized for human codons with 35-fold increase in fluorescence over GFP [3]
- Additionally, "mutation of His231 to Leu, which was probably inadvertent and neutral". [3]
- yemGFP - F64L, S65T, A206K [4]
- superfolder GFP - S30R, Y39N, F64L, (S65T/G65T), F99S, N105T, Y145F, M153T, V163A, I171V, A206V [5]
- Inherited parent variant mutations (GFPmut3*): S2R,
S65G, S72A (S65G mutation is superseded by S65T mutation, hence the alternative mutation designation of G65T)
- Inherited parent variant mutations (GFPmut3*): S2R,
- Other variants and their mutations can be found in Shaner supplementary table 2 [6]
Mutations
- F64L: improve folding @37C
- S65T: 5-6x increase in amplitude and red shift
- S65(G|T) and T203(Y|F|W|H): GFP -> YFP
- Y66W: GFP -> CFP
- Y66H: GFP -> BFP (more blue than CFP), dim, easily photobleached
- Y66F: excitation 360nm, emission 442nm
- R96A: slows cyclization reaction from minutes to months
- F99S, M153T, V163A: "cycle 3" mutations (originally reported as F100S, M154T, V164A) [7]
- Y203I: eliminate excitation peak at 475nm, leaving lower peak of 399nm. emission remains at 511nm, producing large Stokes shift
- A206K: make monomeric
- S30R, Y39N, N105T, Y145F, I171V, A206V: additional superfolder mutations [5]
