Depositor Comments

pQE80L::PtGFP — For bacterial expression aiming at protein purification via Ni2+-agarose and in vitro analyses of PtGFP, the commercial vector pQE80l-Kan from Qiagen was employed https://www.qiagen.com/en-us/resources/download/protocols/cis-repressed-pqe-vector-maps-en. The PtGFP gene is in frame with the preceeding sequence coding for a 6xHis-Tag. 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).
