Attenuation of leakiness in doxycycline-inducible expression via incorporation of 3′ AU-rich mRNA destabilizing elements

Tetracycline-regulated expression systems have been widely used for inducible protein expression in cultured mammalian cells. With these systems, however, leakiness in expression of the target gene in the absence of the inducing agent is a frequent problem. Here we describe a novel approach to overc...
