About this manual

The T-REx System is a tetracycline-regulated mammalian expression system designed for research use. It utilizes regulatory elements from the E. coli Tn10-encoded tetracycline resistance operon to control gene expression. The system consists of an inducible expression plasmid and a regulatory plasmid, pcDNA6/TR, which encodes the Tet repressor under the control of the human CMV promoter.

Frequently asked questions

What is the T-REx System?

The T-REx System is a tetracycline-regulated mammalian expression system that uses regulatory elements from the E. coli Tn10-encoded tetracycline resistance operon.

How is gene expression induced in the T-REx System?

Expression is induced in the presence of tetracycline, which binds to the Tet repressor and derepresses the promoter controlling expression of the gene of interest.

What are the catalog numbers for the T-REx kits?

The catalog numbers are K1020-01, K1020-02, K1030-01, and K1030-02.
