Introduction

he ISRE (Luc) HEK293 Reporter Cell was designed to express IFN-stimulated response elements (ISRE) that drive luciferase expression. When stimulated with human Type I interferons (IFNs), receptor-mediated signaling can trigger IFN-stimulated gene factor 3 (ISGF3)-mediated luminescence.

Application

Screen for activators or inhibitors of Type I interferons.

Background

ISRE (Interferon - Stimulated Response Element) is a cis - acting DNA element found in the promoter regions of interferon - stimulated genes. It is recognized and bound by transcription factors activated by interferons, leading to the transcriptional activation of these genes and the induction of an antiviral and immune - regulatory response.
