IPTG-inducible episomal expression system for exogenous genes in primate cells.
An isopropyl beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG)-inducible episomal expression system has been established for the human breast carcinoma cell line MCF7. This two-component system includes: (i) a primate cell-specific episomal vector, pEpiLac, that contains an IPTG-inducible promoter and (ii) a cell line derived from MCF7, MCF7/LAP5, which expresses the IPTG-dependent transactivator LAP267. Tre...
متن کاملAn IPTG Inducible Conditional Expression System for Mycobacteria
Conditional expression strains serve as a valuable tool to study the essentiality and to establish the vulnerability of a target under investigation in a drug discovery program. While essentiality implies an absolute requirement of a target function, vulnerability provides valuable information on the extent to which a target function needs to be depleted to achieve bacterial growth inhibition f...
متن کاملA polyoma-based episomal vector efficiently expresses exogenous genes in mouse embryonic stem cells.
We describe the ability of novel episomally maintained vectors to efficiently promote gene expression in embryonic stem (ES) cells as well as in established mouse cell lines. Extrachromosomal maintenance of our vectors is based on the presence of polyoma virus DNA sequences, including the origin of replication harboring a mutant enhancer (PyF101), and a modified version of the polyoma early reg...
متن کاملInducible microRNA expression by an all-in-one episomal vector system
Here we describe an episomal, one-vector system which allows the generation of cell populations displaying homogenous, inducible gene inactivation by RNA interference in a one step procedure. A dual tet-repressor/activator system tightly controls a bi-directional promoter, which simultaneously drives expression of microRNAs and a fluorescent marker protein. We demonstrate the effectiveness of t...
متن کاملA novel BK virus-based episomal vector for expression of foreign genes in mammalian cells.
A composite mammalian cell-E. coli shuttle vector was developed based on the human papova virus BK and pSV-neo. The vector contains a dioxin-responsive enhancer (DRE) controlling a mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) promoter for the inducible expression of inserted genes. In human cells the vector replicates episomally, presumably utilizing the BKV rather than the SV40 origin, and expresses the B...
