PfnrF8
This is a hypoxia-inducible promoter to restrict gene expression specifically in the hypoxic environment of tumors. The transcriptional activation promoted by the PfnrF8 needs a specific transcription factor called FNR, which can bind to oxygen. When the oxygen level is at a normal range in the internal environment, the transcription factor FNR will associate with oxygen, leading to its impeded binding to the PfnrF8 promoter, and reduce the transcription of its downstream gene. However, in the hypoxic environment of tumors, FNR will disassociate with oxygen and activate its downstream gene.
Usage and Biology
result
The series of concentrations of sodium sulfite (0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1 g/l Na2SO3) can make hypoxia environment (Fig.2a). Under the PfnrF8 [6] promoter, the activity of LacZ can be seen to rise markedly from 0 g/l to 1 g/l Na2SO3 (Fig.2c). This promoter can respond our hypoxia environment regularly. Comparing with the FF+20 (mutation) promoter, its downstream gene had much higher expression (Fig.2d). We will debug hypoxic sensitivity of the PfnrF8 promoter in the future.References
