Figure 8. Design and Assembly Characteristics of AD-Cterm-GFP.

Figure 8

(A) The AD-Cterm charge distribution (top) is aligned with the reverse charge distribution (bottom), showing the overall symmetry of the 196-a.a. charge repeat in this region of the tail.

(B) Analysis of assembly by EM. The AD-Cterm (3xThr) tail fragment has GFP on the C-terminus (AD-Cterm-GFP [3xThr]). The scale bar indicates a distance of 100 nm. Shown are three images of AD-Cterm GFP (3xThr), assembled 2–5 min.

(C) Analysis of assembly by sedimentation. The solubility of AD-Cterm-GFP (3xThr) and AD-Cterm-GFP (3xAsp) tail fragments constructs are compared to GFP-AD-Cterm (3xThr) and “headless” AD-Cterm (3xThr) tail fragments.
