Abstract
A cold-inducible promoter region and a tuber-specfic promoter region from an α-amylase gene from Solanum tuberosum are described. The promoter regions can be used to express a gene of interest in plants or plant cells.
Claims19
An isolated α-amylase promoter having cold-sensitive promoter activity, having a sequence comprising the 5.5 Kb EcoRI DNA fragment of Solanum tuberosum from the transformed E. coli strain, DH5alpha-gPAmy 351 (NCIMB Accession Number 40682).
An isolated α-amylase promoter having tuber-specific activity and having a sequence comprising SEQ ID NO:
