There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

(A) Cartoon depiction of (Left) GFP and (Right) GFP-TM. (B) Confocal fluorescent microscope image of an E. coli cell producing GFP. (Scale bar: 1 μm.) (C) Confocal fluorescent microscope image of an E. coli cell producing GFP-TM. (Scale bar: 1 μm.) (D) Experimental image of GFP-TM synthesized in aqueous solution in vitro. (Scale bar: 80 μm.) (E) Experimental image of GFP synthesized in the presence of oil drops after washing. GFP does not readily anchor to the oil drop surface and is washed away. (Scale bar: 250 μm.) (F) Experimental image of GFP-TM–coated oil drops after washing. GFP-TM anchors to the oil drop surface and is not washed away. (Scale bar: 50 μm.) (G) Cartoon depiction of TM synthesis, assembly on oil drop surface, and subsequent purification.
