Abstract

The promoter of the barley alpha-thionin gene (1.6 kb) fused to the beta-glucuronidase (GUS) gene directs temporally-controlled, tissue-specific expression in the endosperm of transgenic tobacco. The nucleotide sequence of this promoter shows negative regulatory motifs which have been functionally analyzed in other genes.
