The expression, localization, and degradation of cellular proteins are highly dynamic and exquisitely controlled processes. Although there are a number of approaches to indirectly monitor these processes in fixed cells and cell lysates, tools to study these events in living cells in real time are more limited. The use of cell lines expressing proteins fused to intrinsically fluorescent tags (e.g., GFP) has become routine and the availability of a variety of different fluorescent proteins is driving a wealth of new and exciting research, such as the simultaneous visualization of multiple proteins in a single live cell. In this webinar viewers will learn about the application of current fluorescent protein tagging technologies, as well as a variety of complementary cell imaging approaches including several chemical labeling approaches that combine the flexibility of fluorescent dyes with the specificity and selectivity of genetically encoded imaging tags.

This event is produced by the Science/AAAS Business Office and sponsored by New England Biolabs
