Abstract excerpt
The nmt1 gene of Schizosaccharomyces pombe is highly expressed and subject to transcriptional repression by thiamine. The nmt1 promoter, in common with other strong promoters in this organism, contains a canonical sequence element, 5'-ATATATAAA, located 25 bp upstream from the transcription start...
