Hi Jaya, is there a proteinase cleaving bond between the connxin and the GFP.

Jaya Aseervatham

I dont know. the stable clone was made by someone in the lab

Hi Jaya, could you check if there is proteinase cleaving site in the GFP construct that the lab person made?

I dont know where the sequences are. Made long time ago. My concern is that Im not able to get the connexin 36 in the western blot
