BAK1 without native signal peptide / YFP
This part can be used for expressing the plant pattern recognition receptor BRI1-associated receptro kinase (BAK1) from Arabidopsis thaliana in S. cerevisiae.
The sequence of the BAK1 protein does not contain the original signal peptide sequence of the receptor (BAK-). Instead it has been replaced by the secretion signal of the alpha-Factor from S. cerevisiae. To make expression of BAK1 visible and to test observe the localization in the cell, the BAK1 coding region has been fused to a yellow fluorescent protein by a 15 amino-acid long linker.
For initiation of the expression the promoter of this part is a truncated version of the ADH1 promoter from S. cerevisiae. For termination this part has terminator sequence of the enolase 2 protein from S. cerevisiae.

Expression of BAK1-/YFP in S. cerevisiae
After successful transformation of S. cerevisiae cells, we checked for expression of the protein under a confocal microscope. If expression of YFP (λEx = 515 nm, λEx = 528 nm) can clearly be observed, it is reasonable to assume that the receptor domain is expressed as well. Expression of the construct was confirmed. We failed, however, to confirm localization at the cell membrane.
