Isolation and characterization of the tubuliform spidroin 1 promoter from the black widow spider, Latrodectus Hesperus

Little is actually known about the transcriptional regulation of spider silk as most studies have focused on the material properties of silks. We isolated and mapped the TuSp1 core promoter from the black widow spider, Latrodectus hesperus. Using a genomic DNA walking strategy, we have isolated an u...
