CMV promoter is recognized as the most powerful promoter to start the gene expression of eukaryon. Here we also insert eGFP which is a type of GFP derivatives by mutation to assess the effect of the gene expression in eukaryon. eGFP mutation greatly improved the spectral characteristics of GFP, resulting in increased fluorescence, photostability, and a shift of the major excitation peak to 488 nm, with the peak emission kept at 509 nm[1]. This matched the spectral characteristics of commonly available FITC filter sets, so it could be used by the researcher more efficiently, such as using it in mammalian cells. | CMV promoter is recognized as the most powerful promoter to start the gene expression of eukaryon.

CMV promoter+eGFP CMV promoter is recognized as the most powerful promoter to start the gene expression of eukaryon. Here we also insert eGFP which is a type of GFP derivatives by mutation to assess the effect of the gene expression in eukaryon. eGFP mutation greatly improved the spectral characteristics of GFP, resulting in increased fluorescence, photostability, and a shift of the major excitation peak to 488 nm, with the peak emission kept at 509 nm[1]. This matched the spectral characteristics of commonly available FITC filter sets, so it could be used by the researcher more efficiently, such as using it in mammalian cells.
The CMV(BBa_I712004) and eGFP(BBa_I914891) was linked into the vector pSB1A3 between the restriction sites EcoRI and PstI using the Multiple fragment homologous recombination. The primer designing and the experiment procedure were consistent with the protocol of the ClonExpress® MultiS One Step Cloning Kit, and the correct construction of this recombinant plasmid was confirmed by PCR identification(Fig.1), sequencing of the recombinant plasmid (Fig.2)and the image of transfection cells observed under a fluorescence microscope (Fig.3).

In conclusion, this result well confirmed that CMV+eGFP transformant certainly can be used to express the gene of interest and show its expression in eukaryu.
