According to a study from Peterborough, Canada, "The conserved sequence element (CSE) is a highly conserved 42-bp poxvirus sequence that can function as a poxvirus promoter element. The CSE is composed of 2 repeats, each containing the highly conserved late poxvirus promoter sequence TAAAT." "To define the location of the nucleotides critical for promoter function, polymerase chain reaction was carried out using primers that inserted modified versions of the CSE upstream of the green fluorescent protein (GFP), and the constructs were transiently transfected into cells by using GFP levels as a measure of promoter function. The results of this analysis revealed that the...
