METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR DETECTING PROMOTER ACTIVITY AND EXPRESSING FUSION PROTEINS

摘要

The present invention provides nucleic acid molecules comprising one or more nucleic acid sequences encoding a polypeptide having a detectable activity. The present invention also provides methods of joining such nucleic acid molecules to nucleic acid molecules to be assayed for promoter activity. The present invention also relates to methods of preparing fusion proteins comprising a polypeptide of interest and a polypeptide having a detectable activity.
