ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a polynucleotide comprising a ubiquitous chromatin opening element (UCOE) that does not occur in nature. The present invention also relates to a vector comprising the polynucleotide sequence, a host cell comprising the vector and use of the polynucleotide, vector or host cell in therapy, or for in vitro protein expression applications.
