Assays for Cell Death Strategy

Basic genetic circuit for the restriction enzyme testing construct:

Here, there are 3 possibilities for the expression of the GFP, and these are shown below:

i) Non-functional restriction enzyme co-expressed with the GFP. ii) Basal levels of GFP expression suggesting that the promoter is not functioning properly. iii) Initial increase in flourescence, followed by a plateauing of the flourescence, as the restriction enzymes destroy the genetic material within the cell.
