CDNAs for functional genomics and proteomics: the German Consortium.
To functionally characterize numerous novel proteins encoded by cDNAs sequenced by the German Consortium, 800 were tagged with green fluorescent protein. The subcellular localizations of the fusion proteins were examined in living cells, enabling their classification in subcellular groups. Their activity in cell growth, cell death, and protein transport was screened in high throughput using robotic liquid handling and reading stations. The resulting information is integrated with functional genomics and proteomics data for further understanding of protein functions in the cellular context.
