Potential Pitfalls and Solutions for Use of Fluorescent Fusion Proteins to Study the Lysosome

Use of fusion protein tags to investigate lysosomal proteins can be complicated by the acidic, protease-rich environment of the lysosome. Potential artifacts include degradation or release of the tag and acid quenching of fluorescence. Tagging can also affect protein folding, glycosylation and/or tr...
