Fig. 1. Lysates from bait L40 yeast strains carrying plasmids encoding the
indicated fusion proteins were analyzed for protein expression by immunoblot.
LexA fusion proteins were detected using anti-LexA or anti-N-RAP antibodies,
as indicated. The results show that the bait strain expressed an intact
LexA-N-RAP fusion migrating at 170 kDa, whereas unfused LexA protein migrated
at 26 kDa on SDS-PAGE. Also shown are results from a LexA-lamin fusion
construct migrating at 35 kDa and used as a negative control for N-RAP binding
experiments.
