Nonuple HRE biosensor with RFP for severe hypoxia detection.

The composite part we have developed is a hypoxia biosensor designed to detect low hypoxic conditions, built in silico using Benchling and HRE gene sequences imported from the https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbrc.2006.06.043, pMC3-yeGFP imported from Addgene (Plasmid #176181). Gibson and in vivo cloning methods were employed. The constructs were transformed into E. coli.

The biosensor construct features three key components: nine hypoxia response elements (HREs), restriction sites (NcoI), and a red fluorescent protein (RFP). The hypoxia response elements are short DNA sequences that respond to the binding of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) complexes, which are activated in low oxygen environments. These binded HRE sequences trigger the expression of the RFP, allowing the cell to fluoresce under hypoxic conditions. The use of two restriction sites, NcoI, facilitates further manipulation of the construct if needed.
