Abstract

Prrn promoter elements for enhancing expression of heterologous molecules, including RNA and proteins in the plastids of higher plants are disclosed.

Claims (4)

1. An isolated nucleic acid molecule for promoting expression of heterologous molecules in the plastids of higher plants, wherein said nucleic acid molecule comprises SEQ ID NO: 51.

2. A nucleic acid molecule comprising the nucleic acid molecule of claim 1 operably linked to a nucleic acid molecule encoding a heterologous molecule of interest or precursor thereof.

3. A vector comprising the nucleic acid molecule of claim 2 .

4. A transgenic plant comprising the vector of claim 3 .
