Dictionary » R » Reporter gene Reporter genereporter gene (Science: molecular biology) A gene that encodes an easily assayed product (e.g. CAT) that is coupled to the upstream sequence of another gene and transfected into cells. The reporter gene can then be used to see which factors activate response elements in the upstream region of the gene of interest. ![]()

Results from our forumGene cloning question... and start codon in between the two coding sequences just incase the genes should spit, which there is a chance of if you're trying to splice ... larger sequence or if it is just a plasmid. because then you might have reporters getting made without the protein of interest (false reports) or ...

Gene cloning questionLet me continue with molecular cloning. When you generate N-fusion proteins (our "gene" of interest is fused to the N-term to the reporter gene), does it matter if you leave the Kozak sequence and a start codon in between the two ...

E.coli MC4100 thi- genotypeI'm trying to create a pspA reporter plasmid by linking the psp promoter using the thi- genotype of E.coli MC4100 as an auxotrophic marker, however I'm having 'a little' trouble finding out which gene has actually been deleted or mutated so that I can incorporate it into my plasmid. ...
