COX-2 promoter - FRB - Nluc398

COX-2 promoter, FRB rapamycin-binding domain (FRB) of human mTOR, fused to n-terminal of split luciferase (Nluc398), acts as one half of a promoter-reporter system, forms FRB-rapamycin-FKBP complex in prescence of rapamycin.

In order to test the construct, we combined the COX-2 promoter-reporter construct with the c-Myc promoter-reporter construct in a solution with COX-2 and c-Myc gene constructs to model the conditions in the bodies of patients with CRC, where an excess of COX-2 and c-Myc protein is shed. As shown in the figures below, the combination of the COX-2 promoter-FRB-nLuc construct, c-Myc promoter-FKBP-cLuc construct in the presence of rapamycin and free-floating COX-2 and c-Myc protein successfully induced glowing.

In addition, to make sure the construct worked only with all components present (protein and rapamycin) we tested out multiple combinations with and without rapamycin, as well as each individual construct with rapamycin and without rapamycin on their own. The figures show that glowing was induced only with all the components present, proving that our construct can detect COX-2 and c-Myc proteins.
