| Term |
binary expression system - light-regulated driver |
ID (Ontology) |
FBcv:0007064 (FlyBase CV) |
| Definition |
Transactivator ('driver') that forms part of a binary expression system and whose activity is regulated by irradiation with a pulse of light. A binary expression system requires a transactivator ('driver') that binds to a specific DNA sequence ('regulatory region' or 'effector'). A driver encoded by one transgenic locus or modified endogenous locus is used to drive expression of a downstream 'responder' or 'reporter' encoded by another transgenic locus or modified endogenous locus, by fusing the regulatory region sequence to which the driver binds upstream of the responder sequence. The temporal and spatial expression pattern of the responder thus depends on the regulatory elements used to drive expression of the driver. Use of a light-regulated driver permits further refinement of this expression pattern. |
