Ac5-hCD4-dToll-polyA / pSB1C3

- Ac5 is a strong and constitutive promoter from Drosophila actin 5c gene and commonly used in insect expression system. Human CD4 (hCD4) is a cell marker expressed on the subtype of T helper cell. CD4 acts as a coreceptor to help T cell development and cell function.
- CD4 plays an important role in T cell activation and immune signaling. The extracellular domain of hCD4 (1-396 aa) can form dimer and regulate the function of T cell activation.
- Toll is a transmembrane protein involved in insect immune defense system to recognize pathogens like bacteria, viruses and fungi. Toll activated by pathogens transmits the signaling to express anti-microbial peptide (AMP) to kill the pathogens. - - Drosophila transmembrane domain (808-828 aa) and intracellular domain (829-1097 aa) of Toll (dToll) play an important roll in regulating the immune signaling.
- Polyadenylation (polyA) is one of the process of eukaryotic mRNA translation. It adds a poly(A) tail to protect mRNA from enzymatic degradation and aid in transcription termination. Polyadenylation signal of simian virus 40 (SV40 poly A) has been used widely in mammalian and many eukaryotic gene expression system.
- This construct creates a synthetic human CD4-drosophila Toll chimera receptor system. The system functions not only in response to human HIV virus and also transmit Toll signaling to activate the expression of anti-microbial peptide (AMP)
