GPD constitutive yeast promoter
Promoter for constitutively high expression.
Reference: This promoter is commonly used in several yeast vectors including the [http://www.addgene.org/yeast-gateway/ Advanced Gateway Vectors].

We used this promoter in order to express long hairpin RNA in yeast. Long hairpin RNA targeting B. xylophilus AK1 mRNA or GFP mRNA was cloned downstream of the promoter and introduced into the 2-micron high copy number plasmid of budding yeast, and subsequently expressed in yeast. The Gal1 promoter ( BBa_J63006 ) was used as a control.
Results of detection by qRT-PCR were as follows
As a result, it was revealed that the constitutive GPD promoter had low RNA expression level. That level was even lower than from the conditional Gal1 promoter (BBa_J63006) in Glucose (Glu) medium, a condition which suppresses expression from Gal1promoter. We conducted another experiment with a longer 500 bp promoter which contains this GPD promoter sequence(we used TDH3 promoter of BBa_K530008 ), and it was confirmed that the longer promoter has stronger expression. Therefore we cannot recommend using this part (BBa_K517001) for expressing protein excessively.
Contribution
Addition of loop for hairpin-dsRNA to BBa_K517001
[http://2017.igem.org/Team:Kyoto iGEM Kyoto 2017] has modified this part so that it can also be used for dsRNA expression (see BBa_K2403004 ).
In order to kill pine wood nematodes by feeding RNAi, we used this part as a promoter to express hairpin-dsRNA in yeast. Then we confirmed the expression level of dsRNA in yeast by qRT-PCR and fed the yeast to pine wood nematodes.
We attached a hairpin loop sequence to this part so that you can easily make hairpin loop- dsRNA targeted to your favorite gene. You can create a plasmid transcribing dsRNA with a hairpin loop which can be expressed in budding yeast by cleaving with the restriction enzyme NotI, connecting the sense part between the promoter and loop parts, then cleaving with the restriction enzyme HindIII for ligating the antisense part.
