RED FLUORESCENT PROTEIN (FP583 OR DSRED(CLONTECH)) FROM DISCOSOMA SP.
Overview
Green fluorescent protein (GFP) has rapidly become a standard tool for investigating a variety of cellular activities, and has served as a model system for understanding spectral tuning in chromophoric proteins. Distant homologs of GFP in reef coral and anemone display two new properties of the fluorescent protein family: dramatically red-shifted spectra, and oligomerization to form tetramers. We now report the 1.9 A crystal structure of DsRed, a red fluorescent protein from Discosoma coral. DsRed monomers show similar topology to GFP, but additional chemical modification to the chromophore extends the conjugated pi-system and likely accounts for the red-shifted spectra. Oligomerization of DsRed occurs at two chemically distinct protein interfaces to assemble the tetramer. The DsRed structure reveals the chemical basis for the functional properties of red fluorescent proteins and provides the basis for rational engineering of this subfamily of GFP homologs.
