Here, we present a detailed protocol for fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) to measure the dynamics of junctional populations of proteins in living tissue. Specifically, we describe how to perform FRAP in Drosophila pupal wings on fluorescently tagged core planar polarity proteins, which exhibit relatively slow junctional turnover. We provide a step-by-step practical guide to performing FRAP, and list a series of controls and optimizations to do before conducting a FRAP experiment. Finally, we describe how to present the FRAP data for publication. |
