Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this work was to develop a new general method for controlling endogenous proteins in living cells. To this end, we took an approach to combine a CRISPR/Cas9-based genome editing technique with our previously established SLIPT (self-localizing ligand-induced protein translocation) method. We first developed a novel engineered dihydrofolate reductase, termed iK6-DHFR, as a protein tag that can be recruited specifically to the plasma membrane (PM) in the presence of a previously reported PM-localizing ligand, mDcTMP. We then established a gene-knock-in protocol to generate cell lines in which a genome-encoded protein of interest is fused in-frame to the iK6-DHFR tag and fluorescent protein. Using cRaf as a target protein, we demonstrated the PM-recruitment of the iK6-DHFR-tagged endogenous cRaf by mDcTMP, which led to the activation of the endogenous Raf/ERK pathway.
