Hi
pKEN contains GFPmut1, 2 & 3 made by Cormack (Cormack, B.P., Valdivia, R.
H. & Falkow, S. Gene 173:33-38) which are some of the brigthest GFP around.
Information about pKEN can be found in Ezaz-Nikpay, K., Uchino, K., Lerner,
R.E. & Verdine, G.L. Protein Science 3:132-138.
You can probably get the plasmids from Dr Cormack. If you have any more
questions just send me an email.
Regards
Niklas
