Depositor Comments

pART7::PtGFP:PX is similar to pART7::PtGFP with the difference that the PtGFP gene is extended at its 3'-end by nine bases coding for the tripeptide 'SRL'. This tripeptide belongs to a class of C-terminal signal sequences which direct expressed proteins to the peroxisomes in plants (Reumann 2004; doi.org/10.1104/pp.103.035584) PtGFP (GenBank AY015995) is a green fluorescent protein from the sea pen Ptilosarcus gurneyi which has been expressed in plants and used as a ratiometric pH indicator (Schulte et al. 2006 doi.org/10.1186/1746-4811-2-7, PubMed ID: 16600023). PtGFP is more photostable and less sensitive to acidic environments when compared with pHluorins (GenBank AF058694; GenBank AF058695).
