Abstract

Once the appropriate site has been selected for the attachment of GFP to the sarcomeric protein, it is quite remarkable that the large size of the GFP molecule does not appear to interfere with the localization of the fluorescent sarcomeric proteins into the sarcomeric regions of the myofibrils. A similar approach using truncated parts of sarcomeric proteins linked to GFP should allow studies of the targeting properties of other sarcomeric domains for localization and assembly studies.
