Green fluorescent protein molecule F006 / 9402
Green fluorescent protein (GFP), molecular model. The molecule has a cylindrical structure formed from beta sheets (ribbons). GFP is found in the Pacific jellyfish Aequorea victoria. It fluoresces green when blue light is shone on it. GFP is widely used as a research tool in biology and medicine. The gene coding for it can be tagged to the genes of other proteins or viruses to study their movements within cells. They can also be used to tag cancer cells to track their spread through the body

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of the Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) molecule, known as F006 / 9402. The GFP molecule exhibits a cylindrical shape formed by beta sheets, resembling delicate ribbons. Derived from the Pacific jellyfish Aequorea victoria, this remarkable protein emits a vibrant green glow when exposed to blue light. Renowned for its versatility in biology and medicine, GFP serves as an invaluable research tool. Its gene can be fused with other proteins or viruses to investigate their movements within cells. Additionally, scientists utilize GFP to track the dissemination of cancer cells throughout the body. The white background accentuates every detail of this molecular model artwork created by LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY. With its precise depiction and marker-like precision, this illustration captures not only the beauty but also the complexity of GFP's biochemical composition. Within this image lies a world where strands intertwine and alpha helices combine with beta sheets to form tertiary structures essential for functionality. This visual representation provides insight into how molecules like GFP contribute to proteomics and biotechnology advancements in healthcare. As we delve deeper into understanding these compounds at a molecular level, we unlock new possibilities for medical breakthroughs and scientific discoveries that will shape our future.
