YEAST ENOLASE PROMOTER

摘要

PURPOSE:To provide a promoter useful for the expression of heterogenetic gene in a system containing yeast as a host, and having the region represented by a specific DNA base sequence to the upstream-side of the 5'-terminal in addition to the known base sequence region of a yeast enolase promoter. CONSTITUTION:The region expressed by the DNA base sequence of formula is linked to the upstream-side of 5'-terminal of a yeast enolase promoter in addition to the known base sequence region of the promoter. The obtained promoter has the expression activity of the gene managing the yeast enolase, and is useful for the expression of heterogenic gene in a system containing yeast as a host. The promoter contains the region corresponding to about 720 base pairs sited upstream from the enolase translation initiation codon.
