The NR3C1 LBD domain on the N terminus is the ligand binding domain of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). This LBD domain can translocate the fusion protein into the nucleus upon glucocorticoid stimulation. It also has a transactivating domain 2 (τ2) and an activation function domain 2 (AF2) which activates downstream gene expression.[1] GGGSG linker, owning some flexibility and allowing the proteins on both sides to complete their own independent functions. Tet R in our design provides DNA binding domain tightly binding to the downstream gene, which binds to the TCE promoter (BBa_K4016011) consisting of seven direct 19-bp Tet operator sequence (Teto) repeats. NLS (nuclear localization signal) helps the nucleophilic proteins better move into the nucleus. VP64 is a transcriptional activator composed of four tandem copies of VP16 connected with glycine-serine (GS) linkers.

To test the ability of this part to respond to glucocorticoids, HEK-293T cells were co-transfected with plasmids encoding both LBD-GGGGGSG-Tet R-GGGSG-NLS-VP64(BBa_K4414025) and TCE-SEAP(BBa_K4414041). Cells were treated with 0 or 100 nm Glucocorticoids 6h post-transfection. Cells without glucocorticoid treatment were used as control. Culture medium was collected at 24 h post glucocorticoids treatment. SEAP activity was measured according to a published protocol.[2]

HA-Trim21-aslov2

This part is an integrated tool for the perception of cortisol stimulation and activates the transcription of the reporter gene.


Usage and Biology

As a glucocorticoid sensor, this part is designed to enter the nucleus upon glucocorticoid stimulation and bind to the TCE promoter to activate downstream transcription. The NR3C1 LBD domain on the N terminus is the ligand binding domain of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). This LBD domain can translocate the fusion protein into the nucleus upon glucocorticoid stimulation. It also has a transactivating domain 2 (τ2) and an activation function domain 2 (AF2) which activates downstream gene expression.[1] GGGSG linker, owning some flexibility and allowing the proteins on both sides to complete their own independent functions. Tet R in our design provides DNA binding domain tightly binding to the downstream gene, which binds to the TCE promoter (BBa_K4016011) consisting of seven direct 19-bp Tet operator sequence (Teto) repeats. NLS (nuclear localization signal) helps the nucleophilic proteins better move into the nucleus. VP64 is a transcriptional activator composed of four tandem copies of VP16 connected with glycine-serine (GS) linkers.

Functional test

To test the ability of this part to respond to glucocorticoids, HEK-293T cells were co-transfected with plasmids encoding both LBD-GGGGGSG-Tet R-GGGSG-NLS-VP64(BBa_K4414025) and TCE-SEAP(BBa_K4414041). Cells were treated with 0 or 100 nm Glucocorticoids 6h post-transfection. Cells without glucocorticoid treatment were used as control. Culture medium was collected at 24 h post glucocorticoids treatment. SEAP activity was measured according to a published protocol.[2]

Method

Cells without glucocorticoid treatment were used as control. Culture medium was collected at 24 h post glucocorticoids treatment. SEAP activity was measured according to a published protocol.[2]

Result

Results showed similar SEAP expression in glucocorticoid-treated cells compared to the non-treated control (1.49 folds).

Figure3.Glucocorticoid-stimulated transcriptional activation of SEAP mediated by BBa_K4414025.

Compared with the experimental results of scFv_cyclinE1-Coh2, the results of Coh2-scFv_cyclinE1 had more obvious changes than the control group, which showed that the design of Coh2-scFv_cyclinE1 was more effective for our system.
