We describe a novel expression cloning strategy in the fission yeast for
the isolation of mammalian transcription factors using a mammalian promoter
as target. This strategy is possible because of the conservation between
mammalian cells and Schizosaccharomyces pombe of the mechanism that leads
to the selection of the transcription start site. It also opens new
perspectives to investigate the transcriptional regulation of genes for
which detailed promoter analysis is difficult.
