Abstract: The GluB_1 promoter was amplified from Oryza sativa genome by polymerase chain reaction and cloned into pGEM-T Easy vector.Sequence analysis showed that the obtained promoter fragment 2293 nucleotides and showed homology of 99.2% with the reported Glu B-promoter.Also,the obtained promoter fragment includes the three cis-regulatory elements,ACGT-motif,AACA-motif and GCN4-motif,which are necessary to mediate endosperm expression of the GluB_1 glutelin gene.

Key words: Oryza sativa, GluB_1 gene, Promoter, Glutelin
