Nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NFκB) is a transcription factor that plays a central role in regulating the immune response, inflammation, and cell survival. The NFκB luciferase reporter vector is designed to study the transcriptional activity of NFκB. The vector contains an NFκB DNA consensus binding site and TA minimal promoter upstream of a firefly luciferase reporter gene, which can specifically report NFκB activity while maintaining a low basal level of transcription.
 
The inclusion of a neomycin resistance gene in the vector allows it to be used for stable cell line selection. In addition, the vector also has a GFP-tag which can be used to monitor transfection efficiency. A map of the vector can be found in the product's image gallery.
