Abstract
The present invention relates to a light-inducible promoter and a gene expression system containing the same, and provides: a light-inducible promoter comprising a nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 12; and a method for producing heterologous proteins using the same. Since the light-inducible promoter of the present invention induces the expression of a gene by the irradiation of light and regulates an expression amount of the gene according to an intensity of light, it is possible to conveniently regulate the expression of the gene without straining the growth or metabolic process of an organism. In addition, the present invention can be applied to various types of organisms, and thus has a wide range of application.
