Fluorescent proteins are widely used molecular reporters in studying gene expression and subcellular protein localization. To enable the monitoring of transient cellular events in the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, destabilized green and cyan fluorescent proteins have been constructed. However, their co-utilization is limited by an overlap in their excitation and emission spectra. Although red fluorescent protein is compatible with both green and cyan fluorescent proteins with respect to spectra resolution, a destabilized red fluorescent protein is yet to be constructed for applications in S. cerevisiae. To realize this, we adopted a degron-fusion strategy to prompt destabilization of red fluorescent protein. Specifically, we fused two degrons derived from Cln2, a G1-specific cyclin that mediates cell cycle transition, to the N- or C-terminus of mCherry to generate four destabilized fluorescent proteins that are soluble and functional in S. cerevisiae. Importantly, the four mCherry fluorescent proteins are highly differential with regards to fluorescence half-life and intensity, which provides a greater choice of tools available for the study of dynamic gene expression and transient cellular processes in the model yeast.
