Abstract excerpt
The dual MAS1'-2' promoter regulating two divergently transcribed mannopine synthase genes has been widely employed in plant expression vectors. As part of an effort towards its rational design as a genetic engineering tool, we have undertaken a functional analysis of the promoter by deletion mutagenesis and by the use of hybrid promoter constructs. Our results indicate that the central region of the intergenic...
