    The Role of eGFP in Gene Expression Studies

    Fluorescent proteins induce oxidative stress by catalytically generating superoxide anion free radical (O2*-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) independently of NAD(P)H during their maturation. However, eGFP generates H2O2 levels below the cells’ baseline level and does not cause lethality. How eGFP mRNA Transforms Cells Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is a viral marker for gene expression studies. Light microscopy quickly observes GFP fluorescence, allowing a direct correlation of changes in reporter gene expression with intracellular accumulation of the protein. This quantitative, reliable reporter assay is particularly well suited for flow cytometric analysis because it provides a clear and straightforward measure of protein…
