An upstream activating sequence or upstream activation sequence (UAS) is a cis-acting regulatory sequence. It is distinct from the promoter and increases the expression of a neighbouring gene. Due to its essential role in activating transcription, the UAS is often considered to be analogous to the function of the enhancer in multicellular eukaryotes. Upstream activation sequences are a crucial part of induction, enhancing the expression of the protein of interest through increased transcriptional activity. The UAS is found adjacently upstream to a minimal promoter (TATA box) and serves as a binding site for transactivators. If the transcriptional transactivator does not bind to the UAS in the proper orientation then transcription cannot begin
Gene pleencodes Tyrosine 3-monooxygenase which also known as TH. It plays an important role in the physiology of adrenergic neurons. This protein is involved in step 1 of the subpathway that synthesizes dopamine from L-tyrosine. Dopamine has critical roles in system development. Proteins known to be involved in the 2 steps of the subpathway in this organism are: 1.Tyrosine 3-monooxygenase (ple) 2.no protein annotated in this organism This subpathway is part of the pathway dopamine biosynthesis, which is itself part of Catecholamine biosynthesis. It belongs to the biopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylase family. We also provide ple promoter in BBa_K2374001(BBa_K2374001).
