10x[TALA+TALB] operator_CMV promoter_BFP

  • TALA and TALB labels represents TAL effector 1257 and 1297 from zebrafish experiments (Sander et al., 2011).
  • DNA binding sites for individual TAL effectors are indicated with square brackets [ ].


Introduction

Our construct contain TALA and TALB binding sites, which are adjacent to each other. Because of steric interference two different TAL regulators are unable to bind to its binding sites at once. TAL binding sites are cloned upstream of CMV promoter. Downstream of CMV is blue fluorescent protein. BFP is a monomeric fluorescent protein with excitation maximum at 402 nm and emision maximum at 457 nm.

Characterization

Results: Specific TAL binding sites were further characterized with other reporter constructs.

BFP was obtained from Evrogen.
