Nucleotide sequence of the PR‐1 gene of Nicotiana tabacum

[摘要]

A gene encoding one of the pathogenesis-related proteins, PR1a, and two related pseudogenes were isolated from Nicotiana tabacum. The cloned PR1a gene (pPR-γ) and one of the pseudogenes (pPR-α) were sequenced and found to have similar structures. The sequence of pPR-γ was quite similar to that of the cDNA clone of PR1a. The plasmid pPR-γ did not contain an intron and had a typical promoter sequence in the 5′-flanking region.
