Tag-on-Demand: exploiting amber codon suppression technology for the enrichment of high-expressing membrane protein cell lines

Membrane proteins play key roles in the evolution of numerous diseases and as a result have become the most dominant class of targets for therapeutic intervention. However, their poor expression and detection oftentimes prohibit drug discovery and screening efforts. Herein, we have developed an approach, named ‘Tag-on-Demand’ that exploits amber suppression to control the expression of ‘tagged’ membrane proteins for detection and selections, yet...
