What are the Applications of Fluorescent Proteins in Histology?
Fluorescent proteins have numerous applications in histology: - Cell Tracking: Monitoring the movement and proliferation of cells in living tissues. - Protein Localization: Identifying the subcellular localization of proteins. - Gene Expression Studies: Visualizing the expression patterns of specific genes. - Tissue Mapping: Mapping the distribution of different cell types within tissues. - Functional Studies: Investigating the function of specific proteins by observing changes in fluorescence.
