TRE-Gal4-PXR-PolyA in PSB1A3 (expression vector)

Expression vector from standard BioBrick parts, expressing Gal4 - human Pregnane X receptor LBD composite part.

The Gal4-PXR Chimeric nuclear receptor is an artificial eukaryotic TF made of Gal4 DBD (DNA Binding Domain) and H. sapiens nuclear hormone receptor LBD (Ligand Binding Domain) which can be expressed by this expression vector.

The minimal CMV promoter ensures a continuous expression of the chimeric construct, but furthermore it can be expressed in an inducible form using the Tetracyclin-controlled transcriptional activation system. Go to the official parts registry page for this part
