Figure 1. Induced expression in the Tet-Off Advanced and Tet-On Advanced Systems. The Tet-controlled transactivators are fusion proteins that contain a TetR-derived DNA-binding domain joined to three minimal transcription activation domains from HSV VP16. Each transactivator has been optimized for expression in mammalian cells.
Figure 2. Induced luciferase expression in Tet-On Advanced and Tet-Off Advanced Expression Systems. In the absence of Dox, basal expression is undetectable in Tet-On Advanced cells, whereas full induction in the presence of Dox is very high. Tet-Off Advanced cells show extremely high induction in the absence of Dox, and undetectable basal expression in its presence.
