An improved and secreted luciferase reporter for schistosomes.

Schistosomes are multicellular parasites of humans exhibiting interesting biological adaptations to their parasitic lifestyle. Concerted and in depth analyses of these adaptations and their cell and molecular biology requires further development of molecular genetic tools in schistosomes. In the current study, we demonstrate that a Gaussia luciferase reporter leads to significantly higher level...

Dual-reporter assay using two secreted luciferase genes.

Luciferase is used as a reporter enzyme to estimate gene expression in prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells because the amount of luciferase present is correlated with light intensity in the presence of excess luciferin (1). Furthermore, its sensitivity and range of linear responses are superior to those of other typical reporters (2). When the luciferase gene containing a target promoter region is ...

Improved Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assays for Nuclear Receptors

Nuclear receptors play important roles in many cellular functions through control of gene transcription. It is also a large target class for drug discovery. Luciferase reporter assays are frequently used to study nuclear receptor function because of their wide dynamic range, low endogenous activity, and ease of use. Recent improvements of luciferase genes and vectors have further enhanced their...

Improved eukaryotic promoter-detection vector carrying two luciferase reporter genes.

BENCHMARKS Understanding gene regulation is of fundamental importance to virtually all biological systems. A gene is regulated through cis-acting regulatory DNA sequences (elements) in conjunction with transacting regulatory proteins. The cis-acting regulatory elements involved in transcription include, for example, the promoter, enhancer, silencer, specific activator binding sites, and specifi...

Secreted dual reporter assay with Gaussia luciferase and the red fluorescent protein mCherry

The availability of a wide range of reporter proteins, which can easily be quantitated, has had a major impact on many fields of biomedical research. In some experiments with tissue culture cells, it is necessary to control for differences in transfection efficiency and in other expression parameters. This requirement has been very conveniently met with the popular dual luciferase assay. Its di...
