摘要:
According to one embodiment, a plasmid vector (1) includes a gene promoter (10), a first gene (21), a second gene (25), an internal ribosome entry site (23), a transcription termination signal sequence (27) and a replication origin sequence (30). The first gene (21) encodes a reporter protein for visualizing the activity of the gene promoter (10) which is disposed at the downstream of the gene promoter (10). The second gene (25) is disposed at the downstream of the gene promoter (10) and encodes a replication origin-binding protein. The internal ribosome entry site (25) is disposed between the first gene (21) and the second gene (25). The transcription termination signal sequence (27) encodes a signal for terminating the transcription of the first gene (21) and the second gene (25). The replication origin sequence (27) is recognized by the replication origin-binding protein.

摘要:
According to an embodiment, a method of obtaining epigenetic information of a cell is provided. The method includes introducing a reporter nucleic acid construct in a nuclear of a subject cell, self-replication of the reporter nucleic acid construct, detecting the presence/absence of a signal produced in the subject cell and/or a size thereof, and obtaining epigenetic information of the subject cell based on the result obtained. The reporter nucleic acid construct is characterized by transcribing the state of modification in a specific sequence on the genome of the subject cell onto a corresponding sequence thereof by substitution of a functional group during the self-replication in the nuclear of the subject cell, and producing a detectable signal depending on the state of presence of the transcribed functional group.
