Inducible Gene Expression in Trypanosomes Mediated by a Prokaryotic Repressor
26 May 1995
Abstract excerpt
An inducible expression system was developed for the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei. Transgenic trypanosomes expressing the tetracycline repressor of Escherichia coli exhibited inducer (tetracycline)-dependent expression of chromosomally integrated reporter genes under the control of a procyclic acidic repetitive protein (PARP) promoter bearing a tet operator. Reporter expression could be controlled over a...
