Usage and Biology

The CMV promoter is one of the most commonly used promoters for driving high-level gene expression in mammalian cells. It is derived from the human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) immediate-early gene, which is highly active in a wide variety of cell types. The CMV promoter is constitutive, meaning it drives continuous and high transcriptional activity, making it ideal for applications such as gene therapy, recombinant protein production, and creating stable cell lines. Its robust performance in transient transfection experiments is also well-documented.
The CMV promoter is part of the human cytomegalovirus’s immediate-early regulatory region. It includes binding sites for various transcription factors, allowing for efficient transcription initiation in diverse cell types, particularly in mammalian systems. The promoter is often enhanced by elements such as the CMV enhancer(documented in BBa K5499001) to further increase its transcriptional strength.
