pcDNA3.1(+)-3XHA-GAL4-VP64-NLS

The pcDNA3.1(+)-3×HA-GAL4-VP64-NLS plasmid, which could express GAL4-VP64, was used for Luciferase detection experiment. GAL4 is a protein that can find and bind UAS (upstream activation sequence). VP64 is a transcription factor that, when used in combination with GAL4, can activate UAS and initiate the expression of downstream genes.

pcDNA3.1(+)-3×HA-GAL4-VP64-NLS

The pcDNA3.1(+)-3×HA-GAL4-VP64-NLS plasmid was obtained through homologous recombination of the VP64 homologous recombination insert (BBa_K4585002) with pcDNA3.1(+)-3×HA-GAL4-VP64-NLS linearized vector (BBa_K4585006). The homologous recombination plasmid product was identified as the target product by sequencing and enzyme cutting and agarose gel electrophoresis.

2 Experiment

2.1 Method

The pcDNA3.1(+)-3×HA-GAL4-VP64-NLS plasmid could express GAL4-VP64, thereby activating 9×UAS, which could activate the expression of its downstream gene, GAL4-KRAB or Luciferase.

2.2 Results

Insulin can be processed and secreted outside the cell in 293T cells.

3.Caution

Insulin is not suitable for long time preservation under the best culture temperature of cells (37℃). In the mean time, cells would also consume some of the expressed insulin. So the best tst time for Insulin is approximately 24 hours after transfection, it is relatively shorter than the test interval of LUC.
