GLR1 promoter part plasmid

GLR1 promoter part plasmid was made in order to create a part plasmid which contains the GLR1 promoter and is compatible with the Yeast Toolkit.

To create a promoter part plasmid compatible with the yeast toolkit, at first, we designed a gBlock consisting of the 500bp promoter region, that was retrieved from the yeast genome database, and two linking sequences which were added to the ends of the promoter. Then, the gBlock was inserted into the part plasmid entry vector (pYTK001) through a BsmBI assembly.

Usage and Biology

The GLR1 gene encodes the glutathione reductase, which catalyses the reduction of the oxidized form of glutathione (GSSG) to Glutathione (GSH).1 The GLR1 promoter is regulated by the transcription factor Yap1p. The binding site for Yap1p, in the promoter GLR1, is TTACTAA.2
