As a glucocorticoid sensor, this part is designed to enter the nucleus upon glucocorticoid stimulation and bind to the TCE promoter to activate downstream transcription. This part consists of a tetR DNA binding domain, which binds to the TCE promoter (BBa_K4016011) consisting of seven direct 19-bp tet operator sequence (tetO) repeats. The NR3C1 LBD domain on the N terminal is the ligand binding domain of the glucocorticoid receptor(GR). This LBD domain can translocate the fusion protein into the nucleus upon glucocorticoid stimulation. It also has a transactivating domain 2 (τ2) and an activation function domain 2 (AF2) which activates downstream gene expression.[1] NES is a nuclear export signal which can translocate protein from the nucleus into the cytosol .

TetR-GSG-NES-GSG-LBD

This composite part consists of a C-terminal tetR(BBa_K4414009) domain and an NR3C1 LBD(BBa_K4414000) domain fused with NES(BBa_K4414003). It is designed to sense glucocorticoids and activates the transcription of the reporter gene.

Usage and Biology

As a glucocorticoid sensor, this part is designed to enter the nucleus upon glucocorticoid stimulation and bind to the TCE promoter to activate downstream transcription. This part consists of a tetR DNA binding domain, which binds to the TCE promoter (BBa_K4016011) consisting of seven direct 19-bp tet operator sequence (tetO) repeats. The NR3C1 LBD domain on the N terminal is the ligand binding domain of the glucocorticoid receptor(GR). This LBD domain can translocate the fusion protein into the nucleus upon glucocorticoid stimulation. It also has a transactivating domain 2 (τ2) and an activation function domain 2 (AF2) which activates downstream gene expression.[1] NES is a nuclear export signal which can translocate protein from the nucleus into the cytosol .

Functional Validation

Method

HEK-293T cells were co-transfected with plasmids encoding both BBa_K4414037 and TCE-SEAP. Cells were treated with 100 nM Glucocorticoids 6 h post-transfection. Cells without glucocorticoid treatment were used as control. Culture medium was collected at 24 h or 48 h post glucocorticoids treatment. SEAP activity was measured according to a published protocol. [2]

Result

The test results are as follows:

Figure3. Glucocorticoid-stimulated transcriptional activation of SEAP mediated by BBa_K4414037.

Results showed significantly increased SEAP expression in glucocorticoid-treated cells compared to the non-treated control. A dose dependence was observed within 0-100 nM of glucocorticoid (Figure 3).
