| Abstract | The teteracycline (Tc)-dependent and -inducible transcriptional activator (rtTA) system has been used to express regulated transgene expression in vitro and in vivo. However, previous reports have demonstrated that, even in the absence of Tc, the rtTA binds weakly to the tetracycline response element (TRE), leading to a low level of background activity. In order to reduce the leaky gene expression induced by rtTA, we previously established a tightly regulated system (A-IRES-R system) that makes use of both the rtTA (A) and a Tc-dependent repressor (TetR-Kruppel-associated box; KRAB) (R). In addition, others have described a transactivator rtTA2-M2 (M2) that displays higher sensitivity to Dox than rtTA. In this study, to further develop the A-IRES-R system, we generated a derivative Tc system (M2-IRES-R system) that co-expresses both rtTA-M2 and TetR-KRAB from a single vector. We show that compared to the A-IRES-R system, the M2-IRES-R system leads to a greater level of induced TRE-mediated transcription in the presence of doxycycline (Dox) and yet displays a similar level of basal TRE-mediated transcription in the absence of Dox. Furthermore, the M2-IRES-R system also displays less leaky gene expression in the absence of Dox compared to rtTA-M2 and rtTA systems. Taken together, our results suggest that the M2-IRES-R system enables to tightly regulate and highly induce the expression of transgene compared to other systems. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
