| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Site-specific recombinases (SSR), such as Cre or Flp recombination target cassettes, have been successfully excised or inverted by a single SSR to regulate transgene expression. This study investigated the potential for expanding the multiple regulation of transgenes using three different integrase systems. We designed three excision cassettes that expressed luciferase, where the luciferase expression could be exchanged to a fluorescent protein by site-specific recombination. Each cassette that was regulated independently by a different integrase was connected in tandem and inserted into a mouse artificial chromosome (MAC) vector in CHO cells. By transient expression of integrase, the targeted luciferase activity was lost and fluorescence was activated. These results suggest that the combined use of these integrase systems in a defined locus on a MAC vector permits the multiple regulation of transgene expression and might contribute to genomic or cell engineering.
