  • Bacterial protein phosphoinositide probes and effectors
    Patent number: 7629130
    Abstract: Methods for detecting and quantifying phosphoinositide lipids in a sample are provided, together with novel SidC- and SdcA-derived polypeptide fragments, or fusion proteins comprising such fragments that may be effectively employed as PI(4)P probes in biochemical and cell biological assays. Applications of the disclosed probes include: (i) detection and quantification of PI(4)P in vitro; and (ii) staining of intracellular compartments in live or fixed eukaryotic cells.
    Type: Grant
