The XRE-pMEL1-NanoLuc reporter module is a critical component of the AhR (Aryl hydrocarbon receptor) biosensor system, designed to detect and report the presence of environmental toxins, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). In this module, the XRE (Xenobiotic Response Element) is the DNA sequence that AhR, once activated by ligand binding, specifically recognizes and binds to. The pMEL1 promoter, which is activated upon AhR binding to the XRE sequence, drives the expression of the NanoLuc reporter gene. NanoLuc, a highly sensitive and small luciferase enzyme, produces a bioluminescent signal under presence of contaminants.

XRE-pMEL1-NanoLuc reporter module

The XRE-pMEL1-NanoLuc reporter module is a critical component of the AhR (Aryl hydrocarbon receptor) biosensor system, designed to detect and report the presence of environmental toxins, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) (1) (2). In this module, the XRE (Xenobiotic Response Element) is the DNA sequence that AhR, once activated by ligand binding, specifically recognizes and binds to. The pMEL1 promoter, which is activated upon AhR binding to the XRE sequence, drives the expression of the NanoLuc reporter gene. NanoLuc, a highly sensitive and small luciferase enzyme, produces a bioluminescent signal under presence of contaminants.

The pUUS plasmid is a multi-copy plasmid used in yeast, carrying a URA3 marker for selection in uracil auxotrophic strains. In our system, pUUS is utilized in the reporter module, enabling the expression of the reporter gene, NanoLuc BBa_K1680009. This composite part was used in these devices:
