Luminescence1
Fluorescence is a luminescence that is mostly found as an optical phenomenon in cold bodies, in which the molecular absorption of a photon at a certain wavelength triggers the emission of another photon with a longer wavelength . (newworldencyclopedia.org)
Photoprotein aequorin1
OsMCA1- suppressed plants showed retarded growth and shortened rachises, while OsMCA1 -suppressed cells carrying Ca 2+ -sensitive photoprotein aequorin showed partially impaired changes in cytosolic free Ca 2+ concentration ([Ca 2+ ] cyt ) induced by hypo-osmotic shock and trinitrophenol, an activator of mechanosensitive channels. (biomedcentral.com)
Protein6
When they purified aequorin, they also discovered traces of another protein, which showed green fluorescence. (asu.edu)
The paper was about aequorin, but it also described a green protein, which exhibited green fluorescence under sunlight. (asu.edu)
John W. Hasting and James G. Morin, who later researched aequorin, termed the protein as green fluorescent protein in 1971. (asu.edu)
Shimomura focused on aequorin, purified the protein, crystallized it, and elucidated its underlying structure. (asu.edu)
After tediously extracting thousands of specimens to identify the luminescent components back in the 1960s, a scientist named Osamu Shimomura isolated GFP and aequorin, another light-emitting protein, which led to a 2008 Nobel Prize in chemistry. (buzzfeednews.com)
Within the tutorial, important terms, such as aequorin and green fluorescent protein, are linked to additional pages with more detailed information and pertinent figures, images, and diagrams. (olympus-lifescience.com)
Shimomura3
In the same year, Osamu Shimomura became a research assistant at Nagoya University in Nagoya, Japan, and he crystallized the luciferin, a light-emitting compound found in the sea-firefly Vargula hilgendorfii . (asu.edu)
