Part:BBa_K3610020
mCherry N-terminal - codon optimized for S. cerevisiae
This part is a modified version of Part:BBa_K1093016. It is more suitable for expression in the organism S. cerevisiae and additionally the split was made at amino acids 158 and 159.
Usage and Biology
mCherry is a monomeric red fluorescent protein that has been used for observing components by fusing the sequence to a protein of interes and observing the mCherry by flourescent spectroscopy and microscopy. The mCherry protein is the basis for the bimolecular fluorescence fusion technique which is used to visualize protein-protein interaction. The mCherry is split into two parts, in our case between amino acids 158 and 159. The two components can be fused to proteins of interest and, upon dimerization, are reconstituted to the fully functional red fluorescent protein (Excitation/Emission wavelengths: 587/610 nm).
This part contains the N-terminal part of the split mCherry system and can be used together with Part:BBa_K3610021 for investigation of protein-protein interaction in S. cerevisiae.
