KENGE-tet system requires tetO cassete knockin. Actb gene structure and insertion site of tetO cassette. Mouse Actb gene consists of 6 exons (rectangles), and the tetO cassette (yellow) is inserted downstream of the polyadenylation signal of Actb gene. TetO is the cassette containing the tetracycline operon site (closed squares) and CMV minimal promoter (circle P). AATAAA is a polyadenylation signal. Knocking-in of tetO cassette into the euchromatic locus is a key point for the achievement of higher expression with tTA. Actb: β-actin, cDNA: complementary DNA, pA: ployadenilation signal, tetO: tet operator, tTA: tetracycline transactivator.
