Resource Information

• A portion of this plasmid was derived from a plasmid made by: mEos2 was originally a kind gift of Dr. Michael W. Davidson (Florida State University) and Dr. Loren L. Looger (Howards Hughes Medical Institute, Janelia Farm). Clathrin light chain was a kind of gift of Dr. James H. Keen (Kimmel Cancer Center).

Depositor Comments

Note: The clathrin light chain has an A9D amino acid residue substitution. This is a natural variant that does not affect protein function.
