EF1a-GFP-hGH

This part is an improved part of BBa_K1119008. This device allows constitutive expression in mammalian cells of GFP. EF1a promoter is very useful in cells where other promoters, such as CMV, are underactive or silenced (such as stem cells).

Results

In order to test our mutant promoter, we tested the expression of the reporter gene GFP under three different promoters- CMV, EF1a WT and the mutant EF1a we created. As shown in the following graph, the expression levels of the reporter gene under EF1a promoter was much higher as compared to the CMV promoter, and these levels are almost equal between the WT and the mutant promoter.
