Profile
Name: hFoxO1 Origin: HepG2 cell genome
Contribution
Forkhead box protein (Fox) is a family of transcription factors. The DNA binding region of this family of proteins has a conserved winglike helix structure. There are currently 17 subfamilies in this family, of which the FoxO subfamily is the most well studied. There are four subtypes: FoxO1, FoxO3, FoxO4, and FoxO6 in mammals. FoxO1 has four domains, which are DNA-binding domain, nuclear localization domain, nuclear export sequence, and transcriptional activation domain. It binds with IRE sequence and plays a role in regulating downstream genes. FoxO1 is mainly expressed in insulin-responsive tissues, The main role of FoxO1 is to regulate downstream target genes, such as PEPCK, G6Pase, PGC1-α, and PDK-4 to promote gluconeogenesis and can regulate cell proliferation, gluconeogenesis, and energy metabolism.
Engineering Success
How we design our plasmid In order to construct a FoxO1 expression plasmid that can duplicate both in E.coli and HepG2 cells, we designed the DNA sequences of hFoxO1 to be inserted into the XhoI and KpnI sites of the pcDNA3.1 vector (Fig.1), and transfect the HepG2 cells with the recombinant plasmid and set up our experiment platform.
