Yes, that was a really cool program last night on bioflourescence. It's how the Glo-fish are made.

The biotech industry has used this application for years now and a lot of medical advances and discoveries has benefited from these flourescent genes. The last time I used these proteins, there were four: red, green, blue, and yellow.
