Pmcl1 (short), a truncated version of hemolymph inducible promoter from Metarhizium anisopliae

The Pmcl1 promoter is responsible for regulating the collagen-like protein MCL1 in M. anisopliae. Pmcl1 is a hemolymph inducible promoter that turns on only in insect hemolymph (Wang et al., 2006). iGEM16_NYMU-Taipei registered the full-length Pmcl1 as BBa_K2040100. Compared to the full-length Pmcl1 (2764bp), a truncated, shorter version of Pmcl1 (1586bp) can lead to a twofold increase in downstream gene expression (Kanjo et al., 2019).


Usage and Biology

M. anisopliae is an entomopathogenic fungus widely used as a biopesticide. However, it is less efficient than most chemical pesticides. Genetical engineering is the method to improve the efficiency and safety of M. anisopliae. Pmcl1 (short) can be used to control the expression of exogenous toxins and suicide switches.
