CMV-tTA-hGH

Tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (tTA) is composed of the Tet repressor DNA binding protein (TetR) from Escherichia coli fused to the strong transactivating domain of VP16 from Herpes simplex virus, regulates expression of a target gene that is under transcriptional control of a tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE). In the absence of Dox, tTA binds to the TRE promoter and activates transcription of the target gene. In the presence of Dox, tTA cannot bind to the TRE, and expression from the target gene remains inactive.

We created a ready-to-use plasmid for tTA expression in mammalian cells under CMV promoter, by adding hGH poly A- a terminator for mammalian cells.
