Description
This sequence contains the inducible transcription promoter CUP1, useful for controlled gene expression which is actively enhanced in yeasts in the presence of copper.
Notes
The fact that the sequence for this part included restriction sites for XbaI and SpeI poses a problem for its inclusion in an assembly standard.
Source
This sequence was identified in the 5' untranslated region of the metallothionein gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
