Components of the AhR-mediated lacZ reporter assay

Components of the AhR-mediated lacZ reporter assay. The key elements of the β-galactosidase (lacZ) reporter plasmids (pLXRE5-Z and pTXRE5-Z) and the AHR-GAL 1,10 promoter-ARNT expression construct in chromosome III are shown. The reporter plasmids are centromeric (low copy number) and contain either leucine or tryptophan biosynthetic pathway genes as selectable markers, respectively. AhR/Arnt-mediated expression of the lacZ reporter gene is driven by 5 upstream AHREs. AhR, aryl hydrocarbon receptor; Arnt, aryl hydrocarbon nuclear translocator; AHRE, aryl hydrocarbon response elements
