ABSTRACT:
An object of the present invention is to provide a novel fluorescent protein derived fromfavia favus. The present invention provides a fluorescent protein derived fromfavia favushaving the following properties:(1) an excitation maximum wavelength is 507 nm;(2) a fluorescence maximum wavelength is 517 nm;(3) a molar absorption coefficient at 482 nm is 80,000;(4) a quantum yield is 0.68; and(5) pH sensitivity of the fluorescence maximum is stable at pH 5 to pH 11.
