Construction_summarytQ82-GFP is a translational fusion of 82 glutamines to GFP. To obtain the D368 mutant form of tor-2, an initial round of PCR was performed to generate an approximately 1 kb cDNA (corresponding to amino acids 1367 of TOR-2) using primers 1 and 3 (5'-GGGAAAAATTCAAGATCAAGAACTCTTTGCATG-3'). In parallel, an ~200 bp fragment (corresponding to amino acids 369412) was amplified with primers 2 and 4 (5'-CATGCAAAGAGTTCTTGATCTTGAATTTTTCCC-3'). The two fragments were then combined, diluted and amplified using primers 1 and 2 to reconstruct the complete cDNA. The mutagenesis of tor-2 was confirmed by DNA sequencing.
