    摘要: The present invention provides compositions and methods for programming mammalian cells to perform desired functions. In particular, the present invention provides compositions and methods for programming stem cells to differentiate into a desired cell type. A quorum sensing systems that regulates the expression of cell fate regulators is introduced into mammalian host cells, such as stem cells. The quorum sensing systems generally comprises vectors that express the components of a bacterial quorum sensing pathway, including proteins which catalyze the synthesis of an autoinducer and a gene encoding a regulatory partner of the autoinducer, and vectors in which genes encoding cell fate regulators are operably linked to a promoter induced by the autoinducer/regulatory partner complex. The system can also comprise vectors in which genes encoding additional cell fate regulators are operably linked to a promoter that is induced by a factor synthesized in response to a first stage of differentiation, so that a second stage of differentiation is triggered.

    摘要: Transgenic animals carrying a transgene comprising a nucleic acid molecule encoding protein useful for regulating the expression of genes in eukaryotic cells and organisms in a highly controlled manner are disclosed. In the regulatory system of the invention, transcription of a tet operator-linked nucleotide sequence is inhibited by a transcriptional inhibitor fuision protein composed of two polypeptides, a first polypeptide which binds to tet operator sequences and a second polypeptide which directly or indirectly inhibits transcription in eukaryotic cells. In various embodiment, the first polypeptide binds to tet operator sequences either: (i) in the absence but not the presence of tetracycline (or an analogue thereof) or (ii) in the presence but not the absence of tetracycline (or an analogue thereof). In a preferred embodiment, the transgene encoding the transcriptional inhibitor fusion protein is integrated at a predetermined location within the chromosome of the transgenic animal.
