Abstract

The invention relates to an artificial promoter for the expression of proteins, especially urate oxidase in yeast, which comprises: PA1 a sub-sequence upstream from the TATA component of the sequence of the promoter of the GAL7 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which comprises the upstream activation sequences UAS1 and UAS2; and PA1 a sub-sequence of the sequence of an ADH.sub.2 promoter comprising the TATA component and the transcription initiation region.
