Recombinant DNA, involves creating
VOLUNTARILY DNA molecules
consisting of DNA fragments coming
from different sources
probes are short fragments of
nucleic acids are used for
identification of gens

Also improved their ability to detect
smaller concentrations of reactive oxygen
species.
Replacing a hydrogen atom with
a deuterium
Increased the stability and shelf life of the dyes,

Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen
that has a single proton and single
neutron in its nucleus.
Its atomic weight is therefore twice that of the much more common hydrogen atom, which lacks a
neutron.
![Page 8: Recombinant DNA, probes and Techniques](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5552165ab4c905852b8b541e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
When they designed and synthesized various
fluorescent probes with deuterium instead of
hydrogen
the dyes were not as susceptible to
spontaneous degradation by air and light as their hydrogen counterparts
which made them significantly more accurate
at detecting reactive oxygen species in cells and
animals.

It is important to understan that reactive oxygen
species are the produc of cellular stress and reacts
better on probes that have change a hydrogen in
fluoresent dyes

Researchers from MBIC are turning up the brightness on a group of
fluorescent probes called fluoromodules.

Fluoromodules that are used
to monitor biological
activities of individual proteins in real-time.

This latest advance enhances their fluormodule technology by causing it to glow an order of magnitude brighter than typical fluorescent proteins. The new fluoromodules are five- to seven-times brighter than enhanced green
fluorescent protein (EGFP)

This flouromodules makes brighter
proteis, because it amplified the signal, so it makes possible to follow an specific protein in real time.

Fluorescent probes are essential to studying a variety of inflammatory
diseases, including cancer and
atherosclerosis.
