*mRFP Derivatives
**mRFP1 The original
**tdTomato [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/viewer.fcgi?db=nuccore&id=55420622]
***Brightest
***Best quantum Yield
***Double the molecular weight though
**mCherry [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/viewer.fcgi?db=nuccore&id=55420612]
***Longest wavelengths
***Highest photostability
***Fastest maturation
***Excellent pH resistance
***Quantum efficiency is slightly lower (0.22 versus 0.25 for mRFP1)
***Higher extinction coefficient (due to near-complete maturation)
***Tolerance of N-terminal fusions and photostability make mRFP1 obsolete

Agenda for Friday, June 29

  • Morning
    • pBAD pickup
    • Is OmpA crucial to bacterial cell survival?
    • Finalize oligos (restriction sites)
    • Research "red team" stuff -- ion exchange
    • Brian -- stainless steel, nylon binding?
    • Check on FhuA and pSB3K3 colonies
  • Afternoon
    • Look for metal inducible promoters (Mer) to fuse to GFP/something FP/whatever
    • Order above oligo
    • Find/finalize vector (pBAD33?)
    • Have everything ordered by the end of today!!
  • Question to think about: metal ion diffusion into the cell or binding at the surface?

pSB3K3

  • 9AM - Good news, all of the colonies we picked last night are cloudy today! :D
