VgEcR_2A_RxR L1L2 MammoBlock Entry Vector
Mammalian L1L2 Entry Vector containing VgEcR_2A_RxR construct. retinoid X receptor (RxR) and ecdysone receptors (VgEcR) form a heterodimer to control expression of the EGSH promoter; they can be activated by the addition of the PonS compound. Here they are separated by a viral 2A site that allows for bicistronic expression. (Figure 1)
Characterization
Figure 2 shows a bright field microscopy image taken of a HEK293FT cell line stably infected with VgEcR_2A_RxR_2A_Hygro, a variant construct (with the same DNA sequence up to the second 2A site as our construct) with a hygromycin selection marker. The marker was added for more efficient selection of the cell line.
Results
Introduction of PonS significantly upregulates the transcription activity of the EGSH_EGFP construct. This confirms the functionality of the EgVcR and RxR proteins.
