* '''Description:''' A plasmid allowing rtTA-induced expression of the cell-fate regulator Ngn1 linked to an enhanced yellow fluorescent protein reporter, and a red fluorescent protein reporter tethered by a 2A linker. This construct allows for the verification of the 2A linker, with the ideal result of yellow-labeled Ngn1 remaining in the nucleus and red-labeled mKate being exported to the cytoplasm.
