Abstract
The present invention relates to a promoter functional in plant cells and plasmid that can regulate efficient expression of a gene of interest in plant cells. The promoter comprises a G-Box element, which enhances expression of an operably linked gene of interest in plants or plant cells. A further object of the invention is the plasmid pGbox10 or pGbox11, as well as plants or plant cells transformed with said plasmid.
Claims22

A plasmid comprising:
- a recombinant promoter functional in plant cells comprising at least one enhancer element comprising the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:1 or SEQ ID NO:2, and
- a transcription terminator functional in plant cells.
A plasmid comprising:
- a recombinant promoter functional in plant cells comprising at least one enhancer element comprising the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:1 or SEQ ID NO:2;
- a structural gene under control of said promoter;
- and
- a transcription terminator functional in plant cells.
The plasmid pGbox10 or pGbox11.
