Notebook covers experiments including: Continuation of experiments with karyopherins, now concentrating on co transfecting karyopherins (human, FLAG tagged) with 3P-TAP tagged (e.g. experiment 221) or just PB2-TAP tagged alone. Series of experiments asking if karyopherins co-purify specifically with tagged 3P. Answer: possibly yes (experiment 235A), although also present in controls. α3…
