Humanized TurboFP602
|
TurboFP602 codon usage is optimized for high expression in mammalian cells [Haas et al., 1996], but it can be successfully expressed in many other heterological systems.

TurboFP602-mito fusion
|
A mitochondrial targeting sequence (MTS) is fused to the TurboFP602 N-terminus. MTS was derived from the subunit VIII of human cytochrome C oxidase [Rizzuto et al., 1989; Rizzuto et al., 1995]. When expressed in mammalian cells, this variant provides true-red fluorescent labeling of mitochondria.
