| Research Abstract |
Novel transcriptional regulators (TRs) for a versatile system of intracellular monitoring and transcriptional regulation in mammalian cells have been investigated. Substrate binding proteins and LacI-family TRs chimeric proteins(SLCPs) were designed as novel TRs. SLCPs functioned as TRs in vitro and in mammalian cells, and regulated expression levels of desired genes in a designed target molecule dependent manner, showing their possibility as tools for versatile intracellular sensing/gene regulation systems.
