There are several types of fluorescent proteins, each emitting different colors of fluorescence. Some common examples include: - GFP (Green Fluorescent Protein): Emits green fluorescence. - RFP (Red Fluorescent Protein): Emits red fluorescence. - CFP (Cyan Fluorescent Protein): Emits cyan fluorescence. - YFP (Yellow Fluorescent Protein): Emits yellow fluorescence.
These proteins can be used in combination to label different targets within the same sample, allowing for multi-channel imaging.
