Using a fluorescence microscope, you observed how the localization of GFP-Ras changes in response to the inhibitor. (8 pts total)

a. GFP is a reporter protein, what does this mean?

b. You used stains to visualize the nucleus and golgi bodies and the fluorescence microscope to determine whether the GFP-Ras protein was present in the golgi or nucleus. How do these stains work?

    please answer all that you can 1. You have genetically engineered green fluorescent protein (GFP) containing a KDEL sequence (GFP-KDEL). When GFP-KDEL is expressed in normal human fibroblasts and examined using fluorescence microscopy, the fluorescence appears diffuse across the cytoplasm. How would you explain this observations given that KDEL is supposed to be an ER-specific sorting sequence? A. This engineered GFP would not have a hydrophobic signal sequence to get it into the RER in the first place. B. The...

    Name 2ors L! You are inte finding protein are interested in understanding how Top5 expression is regulated. Top5 is a microtubule protein. You study a cell line where Top5 expression is controlled by a signal, Ligl. When hinds to and activates the membrane bound recentor it activates the Ras protein, which activates atein kinase called PKF, which then phosphorylates Grp4 on T224. Grp4 is a gene regulatory Wotein that can only enter the nucleus when phosphorylated: Thos is not expressed...
