Schematic representations of the fusion proteins and reporter gene that were used.
The reciprocal combinations used provide an internal functional control for expression of the fusion proteins.
There are different expression systems that can be used for the fusion protein created.
There are a few methods in which the fusion protein can be introduced into the host.
Regardless of which protein comes first, this fusion protein may show similar function.
The experiment, therefore, was stopped at the fifth round for both fusion proteins.
Survival time was greatly increased in mice treated with the fusion protein.
In this study 16% of the tribrid fusion proteins were still functional.
These fusion proteins could be used similarly to screen expression libraries.
This would result in the fusion proteins being unable to recognize each other.
