Depositor Comments

Cerulean ws developed by Piston lab. Reference is Rizzo, M. A., Springer, G. H., Granada, B., and Piston, D. W. (2004) Nat Biotechnol 22, 445-9. The EGFP (Clontech Laboratories, Inc., Palo, Alto, CA) contains a valine immediately after the start codon that is not found in the wild type sequence. However, to avoid confusion with previously published work on GFP mutants, the wild type residue numbers are used. This construct contains amino acids 1-60 of the human galactosyltransferase. The original article describes cloning into pcDNA1 ro pCDLSRa. A subsequent paper Zaal et. al. Cell 99:589-601 (1999) describes subcloning into the parent vector used here.
