NEW INDUCIBLE GENE EXPRESSION SYSTEM ON ECDYSONE RECEPTOR / INVERTEBRATE RETINOID-X RECIPE R BASE

摘要

This invention relates to the field of biotechnology or genetic engineering. Specifically, this invention relates to the field of gene expression. More specifically, this invention relates to a novel ecdysone receptor/invertebrate retinoid X receptor-based inducible gene expression system and methods of modulating gene expression in a host cell for applications such as gene therapy, large-scale production of proteins and antibodies, cell-based high throughput screening assays, functional genomics and regulation of traits in transgenic organisms.
