 Description: pKLAC1-GLuc is a yeast reporter plasmid that can be used with the K. lactis Expression Kit (#E1000S). The backbone integrative expression vector, pKLAC1, directs high-level secretion of Gaussia priniceps luciferase (GLuc) from the yeast Kluyveromyces lactis. The gene encoding GLuc is cloned in the NotI-StuI sites of pKLAC1, in-frame with the a-factor secretion leader domain. pKLAC1-GLuc can be used to test plasmid transformation, cell culture, and protein production procedures.
Additionally, GLuc can be used as a carboxy-terminal fusion tag on a desired protein to track its secretion. GLuc activity is easily detected in K. lactis spent culture medium (Figure 1) using the Gaussia princeps Assay Kit (#E3300S).



 Figure 1. Detection of a secreted malE-Gluc fusion protein in spent culture medium. Medium (25 µl) from wild-type GG799 cells (lane 1) and GG799 cells contaning integrated pKLAC1-malE-Gluc was assyed using the Gaussia Luciferase Assay Kit (#E3300S).


 Source: pKLAC1-GLuc is isolated from E. coli strain ER2268 by a standard plasmid purification procedure.
Advantages:- Expression of the fusion gene is under the control of the strong K.lactis PLAC4-PBI promoter.
- K.lactis strain GG799 can be used as an expression host.
- Gaussia luciferase generates over 1000-fold higher bioluminescent signal intensity, compared to Firefly and Renilla luciferases.
- The secreted luciferase protein is very stable and can be stored for several days at 4°C without loss of activity.
