4xMREd promoter
Usage and Biology
To develop a cell-based heavy metal sensor, our research group generated a series of synthetic MTF1-responsive promoter constructs and evaluated their efficacy. Since Wang and colleagues (2004) suggested a high affinity of MTF-1 towards MREd we synthesized a promoter sequence containing four MREd elements at the positioning of the MREs of the MREwt promoter (K5317003) to exclude possible disruption of the MTF-1 and MRE interaction.
Cloning
Theoretical Part Design
The sequence of the MREd site was obtained from Seguin and colleagues (1987), as well as the positioning and spacer sequences (Searle et al. 1985). The construct was synthesized.

Characterization
The promoter was analyzed by composing a gene cassette where its placed upstream of the reporter gene EGFP to assess the promoters functionality and metal-dependent efficiency based on the fluorescent signal. Please visit the K5317010 registry entry to view the results.
