Description
The Aga2 protein is fused in frame with a protein that the user wants to display on the yeast cellular surface. Yeast cells constitutively expressing Aga1 (strain EBY100) secrete the Aga2 fusion protein, which associates with Aga1 through two disulfide bonds and quaternary structure to anchor Aga2 to the surface. The fused protein then is displayed on the surface of the yeast cell.
The STOP codon at the end of the CDS was removed to allow for N- and C-terminus fusions.
Notes
We removed the STOP codon to allow for N- and C-terminal fusions, which have both been proven to occur efficiently.
