Replicating nucleic acids can have added genes {reporter gene} that catalyze reactions used to report that promoters are working or not, for gene-expression or transcription-factor studies. For example, chloramphenicol acetyltransferase gene (CAT) reacts with chloramphenicol. Reporter genes are after promoters, to provide direct promoter-activity assays.
