Question: How do we know where a particular protein is located in the cell?
Cell with fluorescent molecule Principle of Fluorescence
Experimental Approaches for Protein Localization 1. Small Molecule Dyes (e.g. DAPI) 2. Immunostaining (dye-conjugated antibodies) 3. Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) “Tagging”
GFP Excitation Wavelength (e.g. 490 nm) Emission Wavelength (e.g. 510 nm)
Gene Expression DNA (Gene X) Transcription mRNA Translation Protein X
Transcription Translation GFP Tagging Approach DNA (Gene X -GFP “Fusion”) mRNA Protein X-GFP “Fusion”
GFP Tagging Experiments Nuclei Mitotic Spindle Tubulin-GFP Histone-GFP
