sfGFP

Superfolder GFP (Green Fluorescent Protein) is an enhanced variant of the naturally occurring GFP, designed to preserve its fluorescent properties while offering greater stability and correct folding across a wider range of conditions. This makes Superfolder GFP exceptionally valuable in scientific research, as it can be expressed in diverse environments, including high concentrations of denaturants or under stressful cellular conditions.

sfGFP, a stable fluorescent protein with high intensity

sfGFP stands out from regular GFP due to its superior stability and folding efficiency under challenging conditions. Unlike regular GFP, sfGFP maintains its fluorescence even when conditions threaten the structure and fluorescence of wild-type GFP. Both sfGFP and wild-type GFP emit green fluorescence when excited by UV light, but sfGFP boasts slightly higher fluorescence intensity and enhanced photostability, making it a more effective choice for imaging applications.
