Display Proteins

 * mRFP Derivatives
 * mRFP1 The original
 * tdTomato
 * Brightest
 * Best quantum Yield
 * Double the molecular weight though
 * mCherry
 * Longest wavelengths
 * Highest photostability
 * Fastest maturation
 * Excellent pH resistance
 * Quantum efficiency is slightly lower (0.22 versus 0.25 for mRFP1)
 * Higher extinction coefficient (due to near-complete maturation)
 * Tolerance of N-terminal fusions and photostability make mRFP1 obsolete
