Abstract excerpt
Expression of bean seed storage protein phaseolin is under strict developmental control. Four distinct nuclear proteins recognize in vitro the proximal beta-phaseolin promoter (-295/+45) which confers spatial and temporal regulation of the native gene. Functional significance of these protein-binding sites was evaluated by substitution mutation of the motifs in the promoter, which was fused to GUS reporter gene,...
