Figure 1. Absorbance spectrum of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 and the excitation and emission wavelengths of CFP, GFP, YFP, and RFP. Absorbance spectrum (black line) adaptated from Wilde, et al. (1995). Fluorescent proteins emission and excitation wavelengths shown as a single bar due to small relative distance between wavelengths, bars are color coded to the proteins.
