A novel TetR-regulating peptide turns off rtTA-mediated activation of gene expression.

Conditional regulation of gene expression is a powerful and indispensable method for analyzing gene function. The "Tet-On" system is a tool widely used for that purpose. Here, the transregulator rtTA mediates expression of a gene of interest after addition of the small molecule effector do...
