iRFP713

a.k.a. iRFP

similar: miRFP713

iRFP713 is a basic (constitutively fluorescent) near ir fluorescent protein published in 2011, derived from Rhodopseudomonas palustris. It has low acid sensitivity. It requires the cofactor biliverdin for fluorescence.

Excerpts

iRFP is stable, noncytotoxic and the low concentrations of endogenous BV [in mammalian cells] are sufficient to make it brightly fluorescent in cells, tissues and whole animals. These features make its application as easy as the conventional GFP-like fluorescent proteins and hence should broaden the possibilities of noninvasive in vivo imaging
