20.109:TAP-tags
From OpenWetWare
New Protein Engineering Module for F08
Point of departure is to ask if tags are actually neutral wrt protein function
Rough sketch of labs
- Part 1: TAP tag
- non-essential SAGA subunits (essential likely in many complexes so purif profile complex + tag has many consequences)
- unknown ORFs changed during microarray of SAGA del or mtRNT1
1-1 Design primers
1-2 PCR
1-3 Transform
1-4 Confirm integration by colony PCR
- Alternatively, could just give students tagged version.
- Part 2: Western
- need + TAP control
- use Sigma Ab to protA (PAP P-2026, anti-ProtA)
- 1.5 ml ON culture, vortex 3X30' with glass beads and add 100 ul LB from Methods (2001) 24:218
- Part 3: Phenotypes
- compare parental, K/O, TAP-tagged
- examine GAL, Spt (his4-917d), TS, CS
- Part 4: Array
- compare parental to TAP-tagged
