The discovery of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria has revolutionized cell biological research. The ability of this protein to form a fluorescent chromophore ...

Evolution has been fine-tuning life at the molecular level for billions of years. Proteins, the fundamental building blocks of life, have evolved through this process to perform various biological ...

An artificial intelligence model has created a new protein that researchers say would have taken 500 million years to evolve ...

The protein was then synthesized and tested in the lab. It glowed—a clear sign of success. The AI had effectively charted a ...

The 2008 Nobel Prize in Chemistry will go to a trio of researchers who discovered, expressed, and developed green fluorescent protein (GFP) and revolutionized the way that biologists visualize living ...

They called it “green protein,” but at the time, they could not purify sufficient amounts ... Although the bacteria were green, the GFP took a long time to fold and become fluorescent. “The jellyfish ...

At the center of his work is the jellyfish and coral reefs which he discovered produces the Green Fluorescent Protein. UCSD has a large student body in both the graduate and undergraduate programs.

An artificial intelligence (AI) model has simulated half a billion years of molecular evolution to design the blueprint for a ...
