Chromosomal tagging of SEC5, SEC8, EXO70 and EXO84 by Green Fluorescence Protein (GFP) was performed as previously described [38 (link)]. Cells were grown to log phase at 25 °C. The cells were then fixed for microscopy as described previously [39 (link)]. F-actin was stained with Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated phalloidin (Molecular Probes Corp.). Fluorescence microscopy was conducted with microscope CTR6000 (Leica) equipped with a Plan-Apochromat 100x, 1.40 NA oil immersion objective lens. Images were taken using LAS AF 1.5.1 acquisition software (Leica).
