AAV with cTNT promoter driven fLuc
This AAV expresses fLuc 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.
Firefly luciferase (fLuc) is an oxidative enzyme used in bioluminescence and is distinct from a photoprotein. In the luciferase reaction, light is emitted when luciferase acts on the appropriate luciferin substrate. Photon emission can be detected by a light-sensitive apparatus such as a luminometer or modified optical microscope. Firefly luciferase is commonly used as a reporter to assess the transcriptional activity in cells.
Ready-to-use AAV expressing fLuc driven by a cardiac cTNT promoter. Available in AAV1, AAV2, AAV5, AAV6, AAV8, AAV9, AAV-DJ and other serotypes.
