  • System for producing synthetic promoters
    Patent number: 7063947
    Abstract: The present application discloses a method for making and selecting a transcription enhancing combined promoter cassette, which includes constructing a library of randomly combined transcription regulatory elements, which comprise double stranded DNA sequence elements that are recognized by transcription regulators; inserting the combined transcription regulatory elements upstream of a minimum promoter followed by a reporter gene in a vector; inserting the vector into a host cell; and then screening for the cells showing enhanced expression of the reporter gene, and identifying the combined promoter cassette in the cell.
