TetR

TetR is a kind of protein that can find and combined with TRE DNA structure domain.

TetR

TetR can be identified and combined with TRE, which is an important part of the Tet-off system. In the absence of tetracycline, TetR binds to TRE. When tetracycline exists, the binding of TetR and TRE will be blocked and the Tet-off system will be shut down.

2.Experiment

2.1 Method

After TetR binds to TRE, phosphorylation ELK activates downstream reporting gene mCherry expression, and we observe the expression with laser confocal microscope.

2.2 Results

3.Caution

If the green fluorescent protein is expressed too much, and if the green fluorescence is too strong, it may cause a series of colors. In order to ensure the accuracy of the experimental results, the level of noise reduction should be raised.
