Abstract
The present application provides novel algal regulatory elements including inducible nitrate/nitrite promoter sequences and terminator sequences. The application further discloses DNA constructs comprising these novel regulatory elements, and recombinant microorganisms comprising these regulatory elements. Methods of modifying, producing, and using the regulatory elements are also disclosed. Methods disclosed in the present application are suited for inducible expressions of genes, such as a transgene or a native gene in algal species.
