Osamu Shimomura is a Japanese organic chemist and marine biologist. He discovered Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) accidentally from jellyfish.
In 1962, during his PhD work on jelly fish, he threw the purified protein sample in sink in frustration, and later he observed that the calcium in the water caused the conversion of blue light from aequorin to the green colour. Aequorin is a necessary precursor of GFP. Later on it was found that GFP absorbs some of the blue emission of aequorin, emitting a more green hue. In 2008 Osamu Shimomura along with other two American scientists: Martin Chalfie of Columbia University and Roger Tsien of the University of California, San Diego, received the Noble Prize in chemistry for the discovery and development of GFP.
