Abstract excerpt
We have previously found that the DNA fragment from nucleotides (nts) -287 to +110 in the HSP70B' gene is a functional promoter responding to Cadmium Chloride-induced cytotoxicity (Wada et al., Biotechnol Bioeng, 92, 410-415, 2005). In order to increase the cytotoxic response of this promoter, we first determined the location of the cytotoxic responding element (CRE) and then constructed tandem repeats of the CRE...
