In response to amino acid deprivation, endoplasmic reticulum stress, oxidative stress, and other insults, stress-sensing kinases phosphorylate the translation initiation factor eIF2-alpha, which selectively promotes ATF4 translation. ATF4 then binds C\/EBP-ATF response elements (CARE) and induces genes for amino acid transport and synthesis, including aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, as well as genes governing redox balance, autophagy, and cell fate. Through these activities ATF4 coordinates adaptation to stress and is implicated in cancer metabolism, neurodegeneration, and metabolic disease.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Description \u0026amp; Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ATF4 Reporter Lentivirus places a reporter gene under the control of tandem C\/EBP-ATF response elements (CARE), providing a sensitive readout of ATF4 transcriptional activity and the amino acid stress response in human and mouse cells. Reporter options include fluorescent (GFP, RFP, EGFP, mCherry) and luminescent (firefly and Renilla luciferase) formats, with puromycin or blasticidin selection for stable cell line establishment. Signal can be measured by fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, or luminometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe particles are purified by PEG precipitation and sucrose gradient centrifugation and efficiently transduce difficult-to-transfect cells, including primary and cryopreserved cultures. Applications include monitoring the integrated stress response and screening compounds that modulate ATF4 signaling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout This Product\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reporter lentivirus places a EGFP, Firefly Luc, GFP, Luc, mCherry, Renilla Luc, RFP reporter gene under the control of tandem consensus response elements specific for the ATF4\/Amino acid response transcription factor, coupled to a minimal TATA-box promoter and a proprietary upstream enhancer that maximizes signal-to-noise. The constitutively expressed selection marker (Puromycin, Blasticidin) and\/or secondary reporter enables stable polyclonal cell line generation and flexible readout by fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, or luminometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStable integration via the lentiviral backbone ensures consistent, clonally representative reporter expression in dividing and post-mitotic target cells — including primary T cells, macrophages, organoids, and cryopreserved material — eliminating the variability inherent to transient transfection. The self-inactivating LTR design and third-generation packaging minimize insertional mutagenesis risk and ensure biosafety classification at BSL-2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"LipExoGen Biotech","offers":[{"title":"GFP \/ Puromycin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53251617456493,"sku":"LTV-0048-1S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"RFP \/ Blasticidin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53310904369517,"sku":"LTV-0048-2S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Firefly Luc \/ Puromycin \/ 2x10^6","offer_id":53310904402285,"sku":"LTV-0048-3S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Firefly Luc \/ Blasticidin \/ 2x10^6","offer_id":53310904435053,"sku":"LTV-0048-4S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GFP \/ Blasticidin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53310904467821,"sku":"LTV-0048-5S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"RFP \/ Puromycin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53310904500589,"sku":"LTV-0048-6S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Renilla Luc \/ Blasticidin \/ 2x10^6","offer_id":53310904533357,"sku":"LTV-0048-4SIC","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/TF-Reporter-Vector-circular_23cf581a-568f-444f-ba6f-408765ce39cb.jpg?v=1776934148","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/atf4-reporter-lentivirus-bhv19400044","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
