To increase our understanding of the inner working of cells, there is a need for specific markers to identify biomolecules, cellular structures and compartments. One type of markers comprises genetically encoded fluorescent probes that are linked with protein domains, peptides and/or signal sequences. These markers are encoded on a plasmid and they allow straightforward, convenient labeling of cultured mammalian cells by introducing the plasmid into the cells. Ideally, the fluorescent marker combines favorable spectroscopic properties (brightness, photostability) with specific labeling of the structure or compartment of interest. Here, we report our ongoing efforts to generate robust and bright genetically encoded fluorescent markers for highlighting structures and compartments in living cells. The plasmids are distributed by addgene: https://www.addgene.org/browse/article/28189953/ O_FIG O_LINKSMALLFIG WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=71 SRC="FIGDIR/small/160374v2_ufig1.gif" ALT="Figure 1"> View larger version (26K): org.highwire.dtl.DTLVardef@67f3aaorg.highwire.dtl.DTLVardef@ae2235org.highwire.dtl.DTLVardef@47f729org.highwire.dtl.DTLVardef@b3c9d1_HPS_FORMAT_FIGEXP M_FIG C_FIG

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
