The Glucocorticoid Receptor (GR)-GAL4 Luciferase Reporter Jurkat Cell Line contains an engineered transcription factor stably integrated into the genome of Jurkat cells, which consists of the glucocorticoid receptor ligａnd binding domain fused to the DNA binding domain of GAL4. This fusion construct activates firefly luciferase expression which is under the control of a multimerized GAL4 upstream activation sequence (UAS). This allows for specific detection of glucocorticoid-induced activation of the glucocorticoid receptor without the need for individual transcriptional targets and with low cross-reactivity for other nuclear receptor pathways. This cell line is validated for response to stimulation of dexamethasone and to the treatment with mifepristone, an inhibitor of the glucocorticoid signaling pathway.
