GAPDH promoter
Generally, GAPDH promoter can drive the expression of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene in many species.
Biology and Usage
A lot of attention has been drawn to Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (GAPDH) promoter. GAPDH mRNA accounts for 2–5% of the poly(A) RNA in yeasts, suggesting that it can be effectively used in the high-efficiency expression of transgenes[1]. In our project, GAPDH promoter is used to effectively transcribe the genes that contains U6 promoter and homing guide RNA (hgRNA). General vectors have been designed to rely on homologous GAPDH promoter regions to drive the expressions of heterologous genes in yeasts and other filamentous fungi.
