We describe a genomic DNA segment from spinach that bears part of the single-copy gene for ferredoxin-NADP(+)-oxidoreductase (FNR) including a 3.4 kb promoter sequence. Dissection of this DNA segment and its analysis in GUS (beta-glucuronidase) gene fusions in transgenic tobacco demonstrated that the promoter differs in structure from all other promoters for thylakoid protein genes studied to date. Two regions with light-responsive elements were identified. One is located within the first 118 bp upstream of the transcription initiation site. A second fragment covering nucleotide positions -220 to -119 is capable of conferring light-dependent GUS gene expression on two different minimal promoters. The latter fragment binds a transacting factor in gel-shift assays. None of the fragments carries cis elements known from other genes to be involved in light-controlled expression. Comparison of the light responsiveness of GUS gene fusions controlled by the -753/+231 and -118/+231 regions indicates that they respond differentially to phytochrome-dependent signals and that their expression in tobacco is not restricted to tissue with functional chloroplasts.
