Title: The Next Generation of Split-Fluorescent Proteins and What They Can Do for You

Abstract

A symmetrically split fluorescent protein (split-FP) systems provide unique advantages over conventional fluorophores as well as whole fluorescent proteins for cellular imaging and biochemical assays. In this presentation I will discuss some of these advantages, as well as new optimizations and applications for existing LANL split-FP tools in the emerging field of intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) biology, host-pathogen interactions and materials science. I will also briefly present additions to the LANL split-FP toolbox, such as a new split red fluorescent protein (a vast improvement over the current state of the art) and a new technique to develop multimerization-resistant proteins. Lastly, I will discuss some use-cases for these new materials.
