Related Genotype: a/aDescription
In this strain both the lacZ gene with a nuclear localization signal (NZ) and the luciferase gene (L) are driven by a bidirectional, tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE). When mated to a strain expressing the tetracycline-controlled activator proteins tTA or rtTA coupled to tissue-specific promoters, lacZ and luciferase will be expressed in the appropriate tissue in a tetracycline-inducible fashion. According to the donating investigator, the expression of the two reporter genes is biased toward higher levels of lacZ than of luciferase, which, although low, is still measurable.Development
In this transgenic strain, both lacZ with a nuclear localization signal (NZ) and the luciferase gene (L) are driven by a bidirectional, tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE).

| The tetracycline-resistance gene (TetR), arose from chemically mutated Escherichia coli genome which was screened for tetracycline dependence (Gossen and Bujard, 1992). TetR was fused at the C-terminus with the viral co-activator, virion protein 16 of the herpes simplex virus (VP-16). The tetracycline-inhibitable transcription factor is a component of a bigenic system that allows doxycycline (a tetracycline analog) regulatable expression of genes that are under the direction of the tetracycline responsive promoter (TetOp)promoter. | |||
| General Note | In conjunction with a second transgene expressing the tetracycline-controlled activator proteins tTA or rtTA coupled to a tissue-specific promoter (examples include: Tg(Camk2a-tTA)1Mmay, Tg(Myh6-tTA)6Smbf, and Tg(Nes-rtTA)306Rvs), transgenic mice express lacZ and luciferase in the appropiate tissue in a tetracycline-inducible fashion. | ||
| Molecular Note | In this transgene both the lacZ gene with a nuclear localization signal (NZ) and the luciferase gene (L) are driven by a bidirectional, tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE). [MGI Ref ID J:93001] | ||
