GFP nobelized
Two gold medals for reportergenomics! Last year was the gene targeting in mouse (knock-in, knock-out). This year is the GFP reporter protein. By combining animal engineering with molecular imaging techniques it has become possible to conduct dynamic studies on specific molecular processes in living animals. Synergism is more than two Nobels. Great!
