AAV with eSYN promoter driven Mito-roGFP1
This AAV expresses Mito-roGFP1 driven by a neuron eSYN promoter.
The eSYN is a hybrid promoter consisting of a 0.4Kb CMV enhancer (E) and the 0.45Kb human Synapsin I promoter fragment (hSYN1). eSYN hybrid promoter gives about 2-4 fold higher expression than that of the parental hSYN1 promoter. However, the neuronal specificity of eSYN is slightly decreased, compared to that of the parental hSYN1 promoter.
The mitochondrial targeting sequence of human pyruvate dehydrogenase alpha 1 (PDHA1) is fused in-frame with the redox-sensitive green fluorescent protein (roGFP1). The Mito-roGFP1 is a biosensor for investigating the mitochondrial reduction-oxidation potential.
