Quiz#8 LC710 10/20/10 name___________ Q1 (3pts) :I have the UBX homeodomain sequence and want to determine (in vivo) the optimal binding sites. I know that TAATTG is a good in vitro binding site and know that TAAT is absolutely reguired for UBX binding. Using the two plasmids below (you may modify them at will) and a third one that you need to make, please design a clever experiment to look for the best binding sites. is TATA minimal promoter Please add modifications to plasmids #1 Red F.P. #2 Green F.P. CMV is Eukaryotic promoter CMVp #3 MCS Please write it in the form of an outline
