This study presents a new method for generating human cell lines that function as reporters of transcriptional activity using recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV)–mediated homologous recombination. To overcome rAAV cargo size limitations, an EGFP–luciferase fusion gene was employed as both a selectable marker and transcriptional reporter. EGFP-based selection leveraged endogenous gene activation conditions to identify correctly targeted alleles. Using this approach, primary human fibroblast lines were generated in which EGFP–luciferase expression is driven by the endogenous c-Myc oncogene, providing a powerful tool for studying transcriptional regulation in human cells. 000000799 540__ $$fCC BY 000000799 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000000799 650__ $$aFibroblasts$$019020 000000799 650__ $$aOncogenes$$023203 000000799 650__ $$aGenes$$019447 000000799 650__ $$aCell Line$$016284 000000799 650__ $$aGene Expression Regulation$$019437 000000799 650__ $$aGene Targeting$$030764 000000799 650__ $$aHomologous Recombination$$039630 000000799 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000000799 692__ $$aDepartment of Cell, Developmental and Cancer Biology$$041399 000000799 7001_ $$aFernandez, Sandra$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000000799 8564_ $$9f14331fc-1e8b-4298-aed8-afd783ae0126$$s3417101$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/799/files/802_etd.pdf$$ePublic$$25616337c1519dcc93540b9ac571e0200$$31 000000799 901__ $$a<p>These documents are archival records.
