A 0.8-kilobase fragment from the 5'-flanking region of a French bean beta-phaseolin gene yielded strong, temporally regulated, and embryo-specific expression of beta-glucuronidase (GUS) in transgenic tobacco plants, paralleling that found for the seed protein phaseolin [Sengupta-Gopalan, C., Reichert, N.A., Barker, R.F., Hall. T.C., and Kemp, J.D. (1985) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 82, 3320-3324]. Gel retardation and footprinting assays using nuclear extracts from immature bean cotyledons revealed strong binding of nuclear proteins to an upstream region (-628 to -682) that contains two inverted A/T-rich motifs. Fusion of a 103-base pair fragment or a 55-base pair synthetic oligonucleotide containing these motifs to a minimal 35S promoter/GUS cassette yielded strong GUS expression in several tissues. A different pattern of GUS expression was obtained in immature embryos and germinating seedlings from the nominally constitutive, full-length, 35S promoter. Whereas GUS expression under the control of the 0.8-kilobase beta-phaseolin regulatory region is limited to immature embryos, expression from constructs containing the A/T-rich motifs is strongest in roots. These data, combined with S1 mapping, provide direct evidence that a plant upstream A/T-rich sequence that binds nuclear proteins can activate transcription in vivo. They also indicate that additional regulatory elements in the beta-phaseolin 5'-flanking region are required for embryo-specific gene expression.
