Method of regulating gene expression in a cell
The disclosure provides methods of making a tetracycline inducible expression system in a cell. The methods include providing the cell with a first nucleic acid sequence comprising a first promoter operably linked to a tetracycline repressor gene coding sequence, providing the cell with a second nucleic acid sequence comprising a second promoter operably linked to a coding sequence of a gene of interest wherein the second promoter is modified to include one or more tetracycline repressor protein binding sites, and determining the expression of the gene of interest in the presence or absence of tetracycline. The disclosure further provides nucleic acid sequences, vectors and cells including the tetracycline inducible modified promoter.
