Term in the present invention " promotor " refers to DNA regulatory region, conventionally contains and can guide rna plymerase ii to start the synthetic TATA box of RNA at the applicable transcription initiation site of specific coding sequence.Promotor can contain other recognition sequence in addition, is generally positioned at upstream or the 5 ' end of TATA box, is called upstream promoter element, and they affect transcription initiation speed.Admittedly, because promoter region nucleotide sequence of the present invention is determined, in 5 ' non-translational region of the concrete promoter region of the present invention upstream, further separate and identify that regulatory element belongs to prior art.Therefore, promoter region of the present invention further comprises upstream regulation element, it gives any heterologous nucleotide sequence tissue specific expression being operably connected with promoter sequence of the present invention, preferably specific expressed in photosynthetic tissue, more preferably specific expressed in mesophyll tissue.
Term in the present invention " gene " refers to any DNA fragmentation that for example, contains the DNA region (" the DNA region of transcribing ") that is transcribed into RNA molecule (for example mRNA) under suitable regulation and control region (plant expressiveness promoter region) controlled at cell.Therefore, gene may contain the DNA fragmentation that several operability connect, for example promotor, 5 ' untranslated leader, coding region and 3 ' the untranslated region of containing polyadenylation site.Endogenous plant gene is the gene of natural discovery in plant species.Mosaic gene is any gene of conventionally not finding in plant species, or in natural situation its promotor and the DNA region of partly or entirely transcribing or with the irrelevant any gene at least another regulation and control region of this gene.
It is specific expressed that the feature of promoter sequence that the present invention separates is to provide the photosynthetic tissue of object heterologous nucleotide sequence.Described photosynthetic tissue for carrying out photosynthesis or potential photosynthetic part in plant materials, such as green blade, leaf sheath, shell etc., photosynthetic tissue utilizes inorganics to produce organism (starch) and storing energy by photosynthesis, so that plant materials obtains the essential nutrient that grows.Term in the present invention " photosynthetic tissue's specificity " refers to as specific purpose, for example, the high degree of specificity expression in plant (rice plants (" Rice Photosynthesis tissue specificity ")) photosynthetic tissue's cell of object heterologous nucleotide sequence.In other words, object heterologous nucleotide sequence is mainly expressed in the photosynthetic tissue of plant, and the DNA transcript level in the non-photosynthetic tissue of plant is (the total RNA of every microgram is lower than approximately 0.2 pik) that cannot detect or low-down.
Those skilled in the art can easily identify and utilize promotor of equal value in function according to identical object.Have in essence to contain SEQ ID NO:1 of the present invention from the nucleotide sequence shown in the 812nd to the 2272nd Nucleotide or SEQ ID NO:1 from nucleotide sequence or the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:1 shown in the 16th to the 2310th Nucleotide or there is the DNA sequence dna of the similar promoter activity of the corn pepc gene promotor of nucleotide sequence of promoter activity part, be the function equivalent of these promotors.These function equivalence promotors can be hybridized with the corn pepc gene promoter region that contains above-mentioned nucleotide sequence under stringent condition.
In hybridization technique, the all or part of probe that is used as of known nucleotide sequence, optionally hybridizes with other the corresponding nucleotide sequence existing in cloned genomic dna fragment from selected organism or cDNA fragment (as genomic library or cDNA library) colony.Hybridization probe can be genomic DNA fragment, cDNA fragment, RNA fragment or other oligonucleotide, can by detectable group as 32p or other any detectable marker substance markers.Therefore, for example, can prepare hybridization probe by the synthetic oligonucleotide of mark sequence according to the present invention.The method of preparing hybridization probe and construction cDNA and genomic library is known in the art and is disclosed in the people such as Sambrook (1989) molecular cloning: the laboratory manual (second edition, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Plainview, New York).
The hybridization of sequence can be carried out under stringent condition.Described " stringent condition " refers to that probe will exceed and other sequence hybridization condition of (as at least 2 times to background) with its target sequence hybridization to detectable degree.Stringent condition has sequence dependent, and because of the difference of environment different.Hybridize and/or the severity of wash conditions by control, can identify the target sequence (homology detection) with probe 100% complementation.Selectively, can regulate stringent condition to allow some sequence mispairing, make to detect the similarity (allos detection) compared with low degree.Conventionally, probe length is shorter than about 1000 Nucleotide, is preferably shorter than 500 Nucleotide.
Typically, stringent condition is lower than about 1.5M Na ion pH7.0 to 8.3 time salt concn, typically about 0.01 to 1.0M Na ionic concn (or other salt), temperature is at least about 30 ℃ of short probe (as 10 to 50 Nucleotide), at least about 60 ℃ of long probe (as exceeding 50 Nucleotide).Also can obtain stringent condition by adding destabilizing agent as methane amide.Low stringency condition, for example, be included in 37 ℃ of hybridization in the buffered soln of 30-35% methane amide, 1M NaCl, 1%SDS (sodium laurylsulfonate), 1 × to 50-55 ℃ of washing in 2 × SSC (20 × SSC=3.0M NaCl/0.3M trisodium citrate).Moderate stringent condition, for example, is included in 37 ℃ of hybridization in solution in 40-45% methane amide, 1.0MNaCl, 1%SDS slow, 0.5 × and to 55-60 ℃ of washing in 1 × SSC.Height stringent condition, for example, is included in 37 ℃ of hybridization in the buffered soln of 50% methane amide, 1M NaCl, 1%SDS, 60-65 ℃ of washing in 0.1 × SSC.Optionally, lavation buffer solution can contain about SDS of 0.1% to 1%.Hybridization time is generally less than about 24 hours, about 4 to 12 hours conventionally.
