This invention relates to a method to modulate exogenous gene expression in which an ecdysone receptor complex comprising: a DNA binding domain; a ligand binding domain; a transactivation domain; and a ligand is contacted with a DNA construct comprising: the exogenous gene and a response element; wherein the exogenous gene is under the control of the response element and binding of the DNA binding domain to the response element in the presence of the ligand results in activation or suppression of the gene. The ligands comprise a class of 4-tetrahydroquinolines.
本发明涉及一种调节外源基因表达的方法,其中包括一个包含:DNA结合域、配体结合域、转录激活域和配体的ecdysone受体复合物与包括:外源基因和响应元件的DNA构建物接触;其中外源基因受响应元件控制,在存在配体的情况下,DNA结合域与响应元件的结合会导致基因的激活或抑制。配体包括一类4-四氢喹啉。
