Summary: This protocol describes the method used to test various amounts (0, 0.3, 3, 10, 20 and 30 µg) of reporter (H3proMpo-LUC) DNA. The plasmid H3proMpo-LUC carries a codon optimized Nanoluc coding region, whose expression is driven by the histone H3 promoter and 3' mRNA end formation and termination sequences. Lumen per total number of cells (including transfected and non-transfected cells within a culture) is used as a proxy for relative transfection efficiencies. It is determined in each culture based on luminescence measurements performed 72 hrs after transfection using the Nano-Glo® Luciferase Assay System.
