Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant de surveiller les modifications de la cAMP dans des cellules vivantes grâce à deux variants de la protéine GFP (la ECFP et la EYFP). L'invention se rapporte à un produit de synthèse dans lequel le gène codant la sous-unité R est essentiellement un lieur entre les gènes codant la ECFP et la EYFP. Après que la cAMP se soit liée aux deux domaines de liaison cAMP de la sous-unité R exprimée de façon recombinée, la sous-unité R subit un changement de conformation qui réduit la distance entre la ECFP et la EYFP, changement qui est ensuite détecté par transfert d'énergie de résonance de la fluorescence.
