AAV with cTNT promoter driven roGFP1
This AAV expresses roGFP1 driven by a cardiac cTNT promoter.
cTNT promoter is a 0.4 Kb fragment derived from the chicken troponin T gene, and drives cardiomyocyte muscle-specific gene expression.
roGFP1 is a reduction-oxidation sensitive green fluorescent protein used as a biosensor. Two cysteines were introduced into the beta-barrel structure of GFP; the oxidation state, reduced dithiol or the oxidized disulfide, of the engineered thiols determines the fluorescent properties of the sensor. roGFPs (roGFP1 and roGFP2), have two fluorescent excitation maxima at about 400 and 490 nm, respectively and display rapid and reversible ratiometric changes in fluorescence in response to changes in redox potential in vitro and in vivo.
Ready-to-use AAV expressing roGFP1 driven by a cardiac cTNT promoter. Available in AAV1, AAV2, AAV5, AAV6, AAV8, AAV9, AAV-DJ and other serotypes.
