Abstract
An enhancer DNA segment having an excellent action of enhancing the transcriptional efficiency of an incorporated gene in a cell, said segment being derived from a human papovavirus BK mutant designated as pm411, pm522 or pm525. The enhancer DNA segment is useful for enhancing the expression of a gene encoding a biologically active substance in host eukaryotic cells.
