Several cell function specific transcription factors (there are about 1,600 transcription factors in a human cell [32]) generally bind to specific motifs on an enhancer [33] and a small combination of these enhancer-bound transcription factors, when brought close to a promoter by a DNA loop, govern the level of transcription of the target gene.
Promoters in eukaryotes contain one or more of these core promotes elements (but any of them are absolutely essential for promoter function), [9] these elements are binding sites for subunits of the transcriptional machinery and are involve in the initiation of the transcription, but also they have some specific enhancer functions. [10] In ...
Several cell function specific transcription factor proteins (in 2018 Lambert et al. indicated there were about 1,600 transcription factors in a human cell [8]) generally bind to specific motifs on an enhancer [9] and a small combination of these enhancer-bound transcription factors, when brought close to a promoter by a DNA loop, govern the ...
Several cell function specific transcription factors (there are about 1,600 transcription factors in a human cell [35]) generally bind to specific motifs on an enhancer [36] and a small combination of these enhancer-bound transcription factors, when brought close to a promoter by a DNA loop, govern level of transcription of the target gene.
Promoter - commonly used inducible promoters are promoters derived from lac operon and the T7 promoter. Other strong promoters used include Trp promoter and Tac-Promoter, which are a hybrid of both the Trp and Lac Operon promoters. Ribosome binding site (RBS) - follows the promoter, and promotes efficient translation of the protein of interest.
A typical operon. In genetics, an operon is a functioning unit of DNA containing a cluster of genes under the control of a single promoter. [1] The genes are transcribed together into an mRNA strand and either translated together in the cytoplasm, or undergo splicing to create monocistronic mRNAs that are translated separately, i.e. several strands of mRNA that each encode a single gene product.
The tac promoter consists of the '–35' region of the trp promoter and the '–10' region of the lac promoter (and differs from a related trc promoter by 1 bp [3]). The tac promoter is, therefore, inducible by IPTG (Isopropyl β- D -1-thiogalactopyranoside), whilst also allowing higher maximum gene expression than either the lac or trp promoters.
Further research at the late stage of thymocyte development reveals that distal Lck promoter with driven Cre will result in the distal lck gene promoter to drive Cre expression to be limited within innate-like T cells. There is a cell type specific function in innate-like T cells based on the distal lck promoter - driven Cre. [3]
