Calcium Regulated Photoproteins

August 29 - September 3, 2004 Bioluminesence research is
an esoteric subject. Yet from such basic questions as "How do they
do that?" have come astonishing applications. Jellyfish, studied
just because they glow, have given us greenfluorescent protein and the
calcium regulated photoprotein aequorin. Pioneering studies on GFP and
aequorin at the Friday Harbor Labs by Frank Johnson and Osamu Shimomura
have transformed our tools for biological research. The symposium celebrates
the institution, the people, and their legacies. Sponsored by Olympus,
