We engineered a fluorescent fusion protein of lamin, by fusing the eleventh beta strand of GFP to the N-terminus of LMN-1 at the endogenous locus. When co-expressed with GFP1-10, GFP11::LMN-1 was observed at the nuclear periphery of a wide variety of somatic cells. Homozygous animals had normal numbers of viable embryos. However, the animals had a mild swimming defect. While not completely functional, the GFP11::LMN-1 strain is more healthy than other published fluorescent LMN-1 lines, making it a valuable reagent for studying lamins.
我们通过将绿色荧光蛋白(GFP)的第十一个β链融合到内源性位点的LMN-1的N端,构建了一种核纤层蛋白的荧光融合蛋白。当与GFP1-10共表达时,在多种体细胞的核周边观察到GFP11::LMN-1。纯合动物具有正常数量的存活胚胎。然而,这些动物存在轻微的游泳缺陷。虽然GFP11::LMN-1菌株并非完全功能正常,但它比其他已发表的荧光LMN-1品系更健康,使其成为研究核纤层蛋白的有价值试剂。
