Abstract

Abstract: Promoter is an important element in the expression vectors for genetic expression and regulation. Accurate regulation of gene expression by promotors requires fine coordination between the core promoter and its up- or downstream cis-acting elements in the promoter. Inducible promoters can reduce the accumulation of heterologous proteins and the waste of plant energy during the expression of foreign genes. In this paper, we review current research advances on inducible promoters, including promoter structure, function, classification, application and related cis-acting elements. The existing problems and future prospects are also discussed.

Key words: promoter, cis-acting elements, inducible promoter
