Cloning of the pumpkin ascorbate oxidase gene and analysis of a cis-acting region involved in induction by auxin.

Faculty of Applied Biological Science, Hiroshima University, Higashi-Hiroshima, Japan.

A genomic clone encoding ascorbate oxidase was isolated from pumpkin (Cucurbita sp.). This gene is consisted of four exons and three introns. Analyses of the promoter fusion to beta-glucuronidase reporter gene by transient expression assay in pumpkin fruit tissues suggested the existence of a cis-acting region responsible for auxin regulation.
