Plant seed-specific expression promoter derived from sesame and seed-specific expression vector comprising the promoter

摘要

PURPOSE: A plant seed-specific expression promoter derived from sesame and a seed-specific expression vector comprising the same are provided, thereby expressing a foreign gene in a transformed plant to produce useful materials plant seed-specifically. CONSTITUTION: A plant seed-specific expression promoter derived from sesame comprises an active fragment consisting of -179 to -53 nucleotides in the nucleotide sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 3. A seed-specific expression vector containing the plant seed-specific expression promoter and an intron with the expression increasing activity, consisting of +149 to +1722 nucleotides in the nucleotide sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1.
