Growth Rate Evaluation of the Budding Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cells Carrying Endogenously Expressed Fluorescent Protein Fusions
Book chapter, 2023

Fluorescent proteins within fluorescent fusions have been reported to affect cellular growth fitness via altering native protein function and intracellular localization. Here we report in detail a procedure to analyze the growth characteristics of yeast cells expressing such fusions in comparison to unmodified parental strain. This approach can serve as an initial step in fluorescent protein characterization in vivo.
