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 ...
متن کاملSecreted 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...
متن کاملRelative Quantification of Protein-Protein Interactions Using a Dual Luciferase Reporter Pull-Down Assay System
The identification and quantitative analysis of protein-protein interactions are essential to the functional characterization of proteins in the post-proteomics era. The methods currently available are generally time-consuming, technically complicated, insensitive and/or semi-quantitative. The lack of simple, sensitive approaches to precisely quantify protein-protein interactions still prevents...
متن کاملImproved 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...
متن کاملFunctional multiplex reporter assay using tagged Gaussia luciferase
We have developed a multiplex reporter system to monitor multiple biological variables in real-time. The secreted Gaussia luciferase was fused to ten different epitope tags (Gluc(tag)), each expressed in different tumor cells. By immunobinding of the tags followed by Gluc(tag) detection, this system allowed the independent and real-time monitoring of mixed cell cultures in vitro and of mixed su...
