Hsp60 promoter (M. bovis)

Strong constitutive promoter from M. bovis which has also shown to function in a variety of mycobacteria. (1) It is expected to function in P. acnes a closely-related propionibacterium. The promoter does not function in E. coli, as we determined by an mRFP1 expression assay (Figure 1). This negative result was confirmed by E. coli promoter prediction software BPROM on (http://linux1.softberry.com/berry.phtml?topic=bprom&group=programs&subgroup=gfindb) which did not detect appropriate -10 and -35 E. coli promoter elements in the hsp60 promoter DNA sequence, validating our negative result.
