The present invention relates to a novel promoter for regulating ADH gene expression in an organic acid-resistant yeast, and a method of producing an organic acid by expressing an organic acid production-related gene using the same. When an organic acid production-related target gene is expressed in the organic acid-resistant yeast using the novel promoter according to the present invention, there is an advantage in that the yeast can produce the organic acid with high efficiency while having resistance to the organic acid without inhibiting the growth ability of the yeast.

Provided are a novel isoprene synthase derived from sweet potato and a method of preparing isoprene using the same, and more specifically, a novel isoprene synthase derived from sweet potato, a gene encoding the isoprene synthase, a host cell transformed with the gene, and a method of preparing isoprene using the same. The isoprene synthase of the present invention may have higher isoprene productivity as compared to isoprene synthases known in the related art to thereby be effectively used in isoprene biosynthesis and preparation of an isoprene polymer using the same.
