Abstract excerpt
The improving of the expression efficiency of a pertussis toxin (PT) promoter was believed to be a critical issue for the production of PT in acellular vaccine development. In this study, we have isolated a PT promoter region from the genome of a pertussis strain ATCC 9340. Based on the promoter sequence, a series of mutant PT promoters have been generated and subjected to in vitro gel shift analysis and in vivo...
