The present invention relates to the fields of life sciences, genetics and regulation of gene expression. Specifically, the invention relates to a non-viral transcription activation domain for a eukaryotic host. Also, the present invention relates to a polypeptide or artificial transcription factor comprising the transcription activation domain of the present invention. And furthermore, the present invention relates to a polynucleotide, an expression cassette, expression system, and/or a eukaryotic host. Still, the present invention relates to a method for producing a desired protein product in the eukaryotic host of the present invention or to a method of preparing a non-viral transcription activation domain of the present invention or a polynucleotide encoding said non-viral transcription activation domain. And still further, the present invention relates to use of the transcription activation domain, polypeptide, artificial transcription factor, polynucleotide, expression cassette, expression system or eukaryotic host of the present invention for metabolic engineering and/or production of a desired protein product.
A polypeptide, wherein said polypeptide is a non-viral transcription activation domain for an artificial expression system in a eukaryotic host, wherein said transcription activation domain originates from a transcription factor found in a plant species, wherein said polypeptide consists of an amino acid sequence having 96%-100% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO:
