Construction of pGL3-Basic-SREBP-1c-promoter reporter gene vector and detection of its function / 基础医学与临床

Objective To construct human SREBP-1c-promoter reporter gene vector and to detect its function.Methods Human blood genome DNA was extracted and pGL3-Basic-SREBP-1c-promoter reporter gene vector was constructed.Furthermore,the function of SREBP-1c-promoter was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay.ResultspGL3-Basic-SREBP-1c-promoter reporter gene vector was successfully constructed and the promoter activity was obviously repressed by co-transfection FoxO1.Overexpression FoxO1 inhibited the SREBP-1c protein expression.Conclusion FoxO1 repressed the SREBP-1c protein expression through inhibition the SREBP-1c transcription.
