Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a gene circuit structure for realizing the detection of brain glioma markers, and belongs to the technical field of synthetic biology. Background technique
[0002] Glioma (glioma) includes a variety of different types of malignant brain tumors, accounting for about 50% to 60% of human primary brain tumors, with high morbidity and mortality. Gliomas of the human brain become more common with age. The increase in permeability of brain gliomas correlates with their malignancy. Malignant gliomas are characterized by their tendency to invade and recur easily.
[0003] A class of macromolecular substances closely related to the occurrence of cancer tumors is called tumor markers (Tumor Markers). Tumor markers can be detected from blood or body fluids, and their components are mainly macromolecular proteins, including tumor-associated antigens, ectopic hormones, enzymes, and changes in the host anti-tumor immune cascade. There ar...

Embodiment Construction
[0020] See figure 1 , figure 2 , image 3 As shown, a gene circuit structure for realizing the detection of glioma markers is implemented as follows: it consists of a single index detection module and a fusion circuit module, and the two modules are sequentially connected to each other. The single index detection module is composed of an inverter. The inverter is composed of an input terminal, an output terminal and an inverting module, and its main function is to invert the input signal and output the inverse signal. This module detects the three glioma markers GFAP, YKL-40 and CD133 respectively, the input terminals are In1, In2 and In3 respectively, and the corresponding output terminals are OUT1, OUT2 and OUT3 respectively. The fusion circuit module is composed of a three-port input NAND gate. The expression of GFP (green fluorescent protein) is regulated by the input of three proteins A, B, and C. When the concentrations of A, B, and C are high, the expression of GFP...
