Abstract: Gamma-tocopherol methyltransferase(γ-TMT) played a significant role in vitamin E pathway, which catalyze γ、δ-tocopherol into α、β-tocopherol. To analyze the function of γ-TMT promoter, it was inserted into a plant expression vector containing GUS report genes. The expression vector was transferred to wild Tobacoo by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. GUS histochemical assay showed that transgenic tobacco expressed GUS in root, stem and leaf under γ-TMT promoter.
