Monitoring condensate dynamics in S. cerevisiae using fluorescence recovery after photobleaching

This protocol describes the use of fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) to investigate the dynamics of Matrin-3 (MATR3) condensates in live budding yeast. We detail how to generate yeast strains containing MATR3 with an enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) tag and induce MATR3-eGFP...

Descripción
Sumario:This protocol describes the use of fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) to investigate the dynamics of Matrin-3 (MATR3) condensates in live budding yeast. We detail how to generate yeast strains containing MATR3 with an enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) tag and induce MATR3-eGFP expression. We provide steps to prepare slides of immobilized yeast cells and perform FRAP imaging and data analysis. This protocol can be broadly applied to study condensate dynamics of a range of proteins in different model systems. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Sprunger et al. (2022).
