pEXPR_Tret:Cofilin (Inactivated - pseudophosphorylated)

Cofilin is an actin depolymerizing factor. It is recruited when PirB/LilrB2 is activated by beta-amyloid. [1]

The 3rd amino acid in this construct has been mutated to make it pseudophophoralated and inactive. It was ordered from Adgene. In this construct, cofilin is under the inducible TreT promoter. It is activated in the presence of doxycyline.
