This part is not the CUP1 promoter, it is the actual metallothionein coded by the gene under the native CUP1 promoter. Apart from the fact that the sequence has 'start' and 'stop' codons (revealing it to be a protein sequence, not a promoter), a protein BLAST reveals that the sequence is 100% similar to NP_011920.1, the said metallothionein.
The CUP1 promoter can be obtained as part BBa_K945002, which we uploaded. UNIQ423075f1d3adfe5f-partinfo-00000001-QINU UNIQ423075f1d3adfe5f-partinfo-00000002-QINU
