Student name and uNID_____________________________________________________________________ Biol 1610 Class 21 FRAP analysis worksheet The graph below shows the results of a FRAP analyses studying M
embrane P
rotein 1-4 (MP1-MP4). Work with your group to answer the questions to the right of each graph. 1. Label the graph with an arrow to show when the laser bleached the fluorescent protein (
MP1
). 2. Did the MP1
protein move to restore its previous distribution? YES // NO (circle one) 3. For question 2, what was your reasoning for selecting your answer? 4. Did MP2
move to restore its previous distribution? YES // NO (circle one) 5. How does MP2's
movement compare to that of MP1
? faster // same // slower (circle one) Why do you think this is true? 6. Did MP3
move to restore its previous distribution? YES // NO (circle one) 7. For question 6, what was your reasoning for selecting your answer? 8. Did MP4
move to restore its previous distribution? YES // NO (circle one) 9. Use your knowledge of membrane proteins to propose a model that explains why proteins would show the FRAP pattern of MP4
