Depositor Comments

Addgene cannot verify or guarantee the presence of all 256 copies of LacO. This element is unstable.

For use in two-plasmid-based gene-nuclear periphery tethering assay with either plasmids pAK67 (Addgene #33142).

pVS2 (Addgene #33144) contains 256 LacO repeats and a GAL-GFP-GALpA-reporter gene (pVS1 is identical but does not contain the reporter gene). The reporter was previously characterized and contains a GFP open reading frame flanked by the GAL1 promoter and GAL1 3′ UTR ([Abruzzi et al., 2006] and [Dower et al., 2004]).

pKA67 expresses both LacI-GFP and Nup49-GFP to mark the first plasmid as well as the nuclear periphery with GFP.
