Moving Green Fluorescent Protein A jellyfish gene is identified that codes for a protein (GFP) that glows under UV light. Researchers clone the gene and insert it into bacteria.

Green Fluorescent Protein Plasmid from E. coli amp resistance ara B ara A ara D P Green Fluorescent Protein O ara C Gene that codes for the inhibitor protein Operator for the arabinose operon. Gene that gives bacteria resistance to the antibiotic ampicillin. Promoter for the arabinose operon. Structural genes for arabinose metabolism
