Ple49-EGFP Description:

The Ple49 promoter construct is derived from the promoter region of the dopamine beta hydroxylase (DBH) gene. The Pleiades Promoter Project developed a 756 bp MiniPromoter derived from an upstream candidate regulatory region along with segment of the promoter and introduced them into the multiple cloning site (MCS) of Pleiades expression vector pEMS1306 (EGFP reporter flanked by minimal frt sites) to make plasmid pEMS1360 with Ple49 driving EGFP. The Ple49-EGFP (pEMS1360) was introduced by homologous recombination as a single copy insertion into the Hprt1b-m3 locus in the X chromosome of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) mEMS1204. Four ESC lines (mEMS1769, mEMS1770, mEMS1772, and mEMS1783) were PCR validated. Chimeras were generated using mEMS1769.

Note: Promoterless negative controls (pEMS1302, pEMS1306, pEMS1313) have been generated, as well as CAG positive controls (pEMS1157, pEMS1277 & pEMS1488).

 

Ple49-EGFP Expression Pattern:

MiniPromoter Ple49 was assayed for EGFP from pEMS1306 backbone. No EGFP expression was detected above background in native fluorescence under epi or confocal microscopy. Anti GFP immunostaining (rabbit polyclonal, Invitrogen) did not detect specific GFP expression above background across numerous brain regions (brightfield).
