Both MEF2 & CRE promoters initiate transcription
* *
MEF2-JeT transcription activity increases slightly
CRE-JeT transcription activity increases dramatically
CRE-JeT promoter works well with the stimuli of Calcium
* *
Light induces promoter MEF2-JeT

Signal Pathway
Prokaryotic approach
- Successfully tested hypoxia-inducible promoter
- Developed model to predict the behavior of our bacteria
Eukaryotic approach
- Successfully constructed tissue-specific promoter
- Realized eukaryotic light-control system
- Expressed Oct4 in chondrocyte cell line
Comparison
- Eukaryotic: detect the signals more sensitively
- Eukaryotic: target proteins function more directly
- Prokaryotic: Easier and more convenient to control
