• Resumo em Inglês: Gene promoters regulate gene expression quantitatively and qualitatively. The regulatory sequences have cis elements and with trans acting that will direct and correctly position the RNA polymerase which is the process of DNA transcription. Genetic engineering of plants by transforming plants expressing genes of interest, use in most studies, constitutive CaMV35S promoter character. A new promoter isolated from soybeans, which is called uceS8.3 showing a constitutive promoter driving expression in different plant tissues. The analysis of the expression of the uidA gene, GUS, demonstrated that the expression profile uceS8.3 controlled by the promoter is comparable or superior to the CaMV35S promoter in plant tissues such as flower buds and roots. Were identified following the uceS8.3 promoter cis regulatory elements that may be responsible for gene expression profile controlled by this promoter. Modules of this promoter, when compared with the CaMV35S promoter and the uceS8.3 itself demonstrated a difference in expression in plant tissues. Cis regulatory elements as ROOTMOTIFPABOX1, POLLEN1LELAT52, MRE, Sp1 and Ibox. The set of specific cis elements located in the promoter uceS8.3 modules may be the minimum necessary elements to control expression in leaf and flower bud tissues. The quantitative expression analysis and fluorometric GUS assays leaf and root tissues have demonstrated a correlation between transcript levels and the specific activity levels of a ??-glucuronidase enzyme in module 2 (720pb), but there is a difference in the balance of these levels between uceS8.3 promoter and Module 4 (170pb). The studies presented here demonstrated that the promoter and its modules has high ability to drive expression in flower tissues and roots, may be used and applied to different types of biotechnologically biotic stresses, including insect pests and nematodes.
