Oviduct specific expression promoter and recombinant expression vector comprising the same
Abstract:
An oviduct specific expression promoter and a recombinant expression vector including the same. A promoter of an AGR2 gene is expressed specifically in the chicken oviduct, and a recombinant expression vector includes the promoter and a desired gene for encoding a desired protein. The oviduct specific promoter and the recombinant expression vector including the promoter can induce the expression of a protein specifically in the oviduct, i.e., an organ that secrets proteins so as to accumulate with a large amount in the egg. Accordingly, the oviduct specific promoter and the recombinant expression vector of the present invention can be advantageously used to produce transformed chickens, which can massively yield useful elements of high added value, produce functional eggs, and improve the economic traits of the poultry.
