Abstract
The invention found that partial deletion of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gpd) promoter can enhance gene expression (even heterologous gene expression) in basidiomycetous fungi. With the discovery of these gpd promoters, an expression system can be constructed for the expression of a heterologous gene in mushroom. Accordingly, the invention provides a truncated glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase promoter and a construct comprising the promoter of the invention operably linked to a heterologous transcribable polynucleotide molecule and a mushroom comprising the construct.
