Title: Red-shifted fluorescent proteins mPlum and mRaspberry and polynucleotides encoding the same

Patent ·
OSTI ID:984485

Methods using somatic hypermutation (SHM) for producing polypeptide and nucleic acid variants, and nucleic acids encoding such polypeptide variants are disclosed. Such variants may have desired properties. Also disclosed are novel polypeptides, such as improved fluorescent proteins, produced by the novel methods, and nucleic acids, vectors, and host cells comprising such vectors.
