The term 1700022I11Rik Activators refers to a group of chemical agents identified by their role in promoting the activity of the 1700022I11Rik gene within the mouse genome. This gene's protein or RNA product is essential for certain cellular processes, and increasing its expression can influence the biological pathways in which it participates. The journey to discovering these activators typically commences with high-throughput screening, a process that tests a vast library of chemicals to find those that can enhance the gene's activity. This process often employs a reporter gene assay, where the promoter of 1700022I11Rik is linked to a luciferase reporter gene. Activation by a compound leads to an increase in luciferase expression, measurable as a luminescent signal. Compounds that cause an elevation in this signal are considered candidates for 1700022I11Rik Activators and are selected for further validation.
Post-screening, candidate activators undergo a battery of confirmatory tests to ensure that the luminescent increase corresponds to an actual elevation in 1700022I11Rik gene activity. Quantitative PCR (qPCR) is a pivotal technique in this phase, quantifying the mRNA levels of 1700022I11Rik. Complementing qPCR, Western blotting is used to detect and quantify the protein translated from the mRNA. This step confirms that the observed increase in mRNA results in a proportional synthesis of the protein and also sheds light on whether the activator affects protein stability or drives post-translational modifications. These methods together provide a quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the activator's influence on gene and protein expression levels, yielding a comprehensive understanding of the activator's effect on 1700022I11Rik.
