Here we describe the development of a baculovirus vector expression cassette containing rearranged baculovirus-derived genetic regulatory elements. This newly designed expression cassette conferred significant production improvements to the baculovirus expression vector system (BEVS), including prolonged cell integrity after infection, improved protein integrity, and around 4-fold increase in r...

Genes placed under the control of the arabinose-inducible araBAD promoter (P(BAD)) of Escherichia coli are expressed in an all-or-none fashion, in which the percentage of induced cells in the population, rather than the degree of induction in individual cells, varies with the concentration of arabinose in the culture medium. Previous work showed that all-or-none gene expression from P(BAD) was ...

Heterologous protein production in yeast expression systems (i.e., Kluyveromyces lactis and Pichia pastoris) normally involves insertion of a linear expression cassette into a target locus in the host genome (1-3). Typically, an expression cassette is assembled in E. coli by first cloning a gene of interest into a circular expression vector (Figure 1A). The expression cassette comprises DNA enc...

Recent studies show that several Hox transcription factors are important for regulation of proliferation and differentiation in hematopoiesis. Among these is H0XA10, which is selectively expressed at high levels in the most primitive subpopulation of human CD34(+) bone marrow cells. When overexpressed, H0XA10 increases the proliferation of early progenitor cells and can lead to the development ...

Serine proteases in the nervous system have functional roles in neural plasticity. Among them, urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) exerts a variety of functions during development, and is involved in learning and memory. Furthermore, psychostimulants strongly induce uPA expression in the mesolimbic dopaminergic pathway. In this study, doxycycline-regulatable lentiviruses expressing eithe...

Exogenous protein expression in mammalian cells is necessary to produce therapeutic proteins and modern medical applications like developing DNA vaccines gene therapy. This study examines the human-Globin (hBG) second intron's capacity for intron-mediated enhancement (IME) various cell lines. Our study's main aim investigate effect of incorporation arrangement intron human Beta-globin into pVAX...

This paper studies the classical problem of output regulation for linear systems subject to actuator saturation. The asymptotically regulatable region, the set of all initial conditions of the plant and the exosystem for which output regulation is possible, is characterized in terms of the null controllable region of the anti-stable subsystem of the plant. Feedback laws are constructed that ach...

The recently introduced tetracycline (Tc)-regulatable eukaryotic gene expression system based on the Escherichia coli Tn 10 tetracycline operon has proven to be a powerful tool for controlled expression of a variety of genes in vitro as well as in vivo . Control elements of this expression system are contained in two separate plasmid vectors. The tTA vector encodes a transactivator protein and ...

Neurogenin 2 encodes a neural-specific transcription factor (NGN2) able to drive neuronal fate on somatic and stem cells. NGN2 is expressed in neural progenitors within the developing central peripheral nervous systems. Overexpression of human induced pluripotent cells (hiPSCs) or embryonic has been shown efficiently trigger conversion neurons. Here we describe two gene-edited hiPSC lines harbo...
