Abstract
Described herein are nucleic acid modules for cloning, expression and tagging of eukaryotic membrane proteins. The nucleic acid modules include a receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) signal sequence, a nucleic acid sequence encoding a tag and a multiple cloning sequence (MCS). Any membrane protein of interest can be cloned into the MCS for expression in cells. The nucleic acid modules can encode any type of tag, such as an epitope tag or affinity tag. The nucleic acid modules disclosed herein can be used to express any type of membrane protein and are particularly suited to the expression and tagging of Type I and Type III membrane proteins.
