The pGL4.26[luc2/minP/Hygro] Vector encodes the luciferase reporter gene luc2（Photinus pyralis） and is designed for high expression and reduced anomalous transcription. The vector contains a multiple cloning region for insertion of a response element of interest upstream of a minimal promoter and the luc2 gene.luc2 is a synthetically-derived luciferase sequence with humanized codon optimization. The vector backbone contains an ampicillin resistance gene to allow selection in E. coli and a mammalian selectable marker for hygromycin resistance.
