ID Plasmid Purpose
181856pcDNA3.1(+)-FluoSTEP-AktARGenetically encoded FRET-based sensor for monitoring Akt activity near a protein of interest. Must pair with GFP11-tagged POI to reconstitute donor fluorescence.
181857pcDNA3.1(+)-FluoSTEP-JNKARGenetically encoded FRET-based sensor for monitoring JNK kinase activity near a protein of interest. Must pair with GFP11-tagged POI to reconstitute donor fluorescence.
181858pcDNA3.1(+)-FluoSTEP-EKARGenetically encoded FRET-based sensor for monitoring ERK activity near a protein of interest. Must pair with GFP11-tagged POI to reconstitute donor fluorescence.
181859pcDNA3.1(+)-cpPKN-mRuby2-GFP1-10Part of FluoSTEP-RhoA biosensor; must be expressed with GFP11-tagged RhoA plasmid (Addgene #181860) or in GFP11-RhoA gene-edited cells.
