Description
This sequence contains the strong inducible promoter AOX1, useful for controlled gene expression which is actively enhanced in the presence of methanol.
Notes
A high incidence of nucleotide repetitions in the sequence makes it especially difficult for the part to be manufactured by oligonucleotide synthesis.
Source
This sequence was identified from the 5' untranslated region of the alcohol oxidase gene (AOX1) present in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris.
