Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is composed of 11 β-strands, and loses GFP signals, when divided into the N-terminal ten β-strands (GFP1-10) and the C-terminal last β-strand (GFP11). However, when GFP1-10 and GFP11 encounter, they reassemble into the fluorescent GFP. We expressed GFP1-10 and blasticidin resistance gene product-fused GFP11 (BSR-GFP11) in C2C12 cells. Both the cell lines do not show GFP but when they undergo myogenesis and myofusion, GFP1-10 and BSR-GFP11 form the fluorescent complex in multi-nuclear myotubes, so that GFP signals reflect myogenesis and myofusion.
绿色荧光蛋白(GFP)由11条β链组成,当被分为N端的十条β链(GFP1-10)和C端的最后一条β链(GFP11)时,会失去GFP信号。然而,当GFP1-10和GFP11相遇时,它们会重新组装成有荧光的GFP。我们在C2C12细胞中表达了GFP1-10和与杀稻瘟菌素抗性基因产物融合的GFP11(BSR-GFP11)。这两种细胞系均不显示GFP,但当它们进行肌生成和肌融合时,GFP1-10和BSR-GFP11在多核肌管中形成荧光复合物,从而使GFP信号反映肌生成和肌融合。
