Promoter A - (Dec/09/2007 )

Hey guys,

I've got Promoter A in my vector and I just wanted to find out more about this promoter. I tried googling it but it comes up with nothing specific. Anyone know anything about it, like its origin and expression levels and the like? The sequence below contains the promoter (not exact):

Doesn't your vector have a name? If so you can look up that vector in some database and check what kind of promoter this is.
You can also BLAST the sequence...
