Memerald tomm20 n 10

Manufactured by Addgene

MEmerald-TOMM20-N-10 is a fluorescent protein construct that targets the mitochondrial outer membrane. It consists of the mEmerald fluorescent protein fused to the N-terminus of the TOMM20 protein, which is a component of the translocase of the outer mitochondrial membrane.

Mitochondrial Fluorescent Protein Labeling

We generated a modified pLKO.1 plasmid backbone with an accessible multiple cloning site (pLKO.1_MCS) for generation of fluorescent reporters. For mito-FP expression, we cloned the cytochrome oxidase subunit VIII mitochondrial targeting sequence and tagged it to mEmerald (referred to as mito-mEm) or tagRFPt (referred to as mito-RFP) and introduced these into the pLKO.1_MCS backbone in order to generate lentiviruses. pLKO.1 mito-mEmerald and pLKO.1 mito-TagRFP-T are available on Addgene (#174542 and 174543, respectively). For FP-TOMM20 expression, inserts containing the sequence of either mEmerald (mEmerald-TOMM20) or mcherry (mCherry-TOMM20) fused to TOMM20 and cloned into the pLKO.1 backbone and used to generate lentiviruses. Stable lines were generated through lentiviral transduction. For transduction, approximately 50,000 cells were plated into one well of a 6-well plate directly into the appropriate lentivirus supernatant diluted 1:5 in DMEM complete media with a final concentration of 10 µg/mL polybrene (TR-1003-G, Sigma). After 48–72 hr, cells were expanded, and multiclonal populations were flow sorted for appropriate levels of fluorescent expression. All other transgenic cell lines were generated as outlined in subsequent sections.
mEmerald-TOMM20-N-10 (Addgene plasmid # 54282) and mCherry-TOMM20-N-10 (Addgene plasmid # 55146) were a gift from Michael Davidson.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
