Isolation of Alcohol Dehydrogenase cDNA and Basal Regulatory Region from Metroxylon sagu

Analysis of the upstream sequences of msAdh1 gene. A putative promoter region (in parenthesis) is identified with the detection of the transcription and translation start sites using Promoter Prediction [17]. The putative transcription start site is designated as +1 (indicated by an arrow) and translation start site is shown in box. The intron region is indicated by small caps, meanwhile the protein coding region (bold) was predicted by using GenScan software [18]. The putative TATA box (TATAAAAA), CAT box (CAAT), and AGGA box are indicated in bold and underlined.
