AAV with ELA1 promoter driven EGFP
This AAV expresses EGFP driven by a pancreatic acinar ELA1 promoter.
Rat elastase 1 (Ela1; ELAI1; RATELAI1), also called chymotrypsin-like elastase family, member 1, is the major protease with elastin-degrading activity in the mammalian exocrine pancreas. The ELA1 promoter (0.3Kb) is comprised of the core promoter and enhancer, and directs transgene expression in pancreatic acinar cells, stomach, duodenum, and colon.
EGFP is derived from the Aequorea GFP with a Excitation/Emission spectrum around 488nm/507nm. It is the most commonly used imaging probe. Other fluorescent proteins with similar emission spectrums are Emerald, and T-Sapphire.
Ready-to-use AAV expressing EGFP driven by a pancreatic acinar ELA1 promoter. Available in AAV1, AAV2, AAV5, AAV6, AAV8, AAV9, AAV-DJ and other serotypes.
