Tagging membrane proteins

Hi,

I'd like to tag my favorite membrane associated protein (a sensory 
neuron ion-channel ) with something in addition to GFP.  Does anyone 
have any suggestions for which tags (ie, FLAG, MYC, HA) work best for 
membrane proteins that are expressed at low levels in very restricted 
patterns?  Ideally I would do immunocytochemistry to reveal the tag so 
I'd like to know which tags and antibodies perform best in fixed worms 
(what fixation protocol do you use?).

Thanks for your suggestions, Karla
