Specificity | This antibody is specific for GFP. |
Alternative Name | Green fluorescent protein; GFP Binding Protein 1; Enhancer |
UniProt | P42212 |
Immunogen | The original antibody was generated by immunizing an alpaca with GFP. |
Application Notes | The Enhancer (Enh) anti-GFP nanobody, also known as GFP binding protein 1 (GBP1), was specifically used for manipulating protein conformation in vitro and in vivo; this nanobody caused a fourfold fluorescence enhancement by stabilizing the deprotonated, negatively charged state of the GFP chromophore, resulting in increased fluorescence intensity (Kirchhofer et al., 2010; PMID: 20010839). |

Note on publication | The original publication explores the use of camelid-derived nanobodies to modulate the conformation and spectral properties of green fluorescent protein (GFP) in living cells, revealing the potential for manipulating and studying protein conformations using nanobodies. |
