This disclosure concerns compositions and methods for promoting transcription and translation of a nucleotide sequence in a plant or plant cell, employing a 3’UTR from Zea mays chlorophyll a/b binding protein gene. Some embodiments relate to a 3’UTR from a Zea mays chlorophyll a/b binding protein gene that functions in plants to terminate transcription of operably linked nucleotide sequences.本發明係有關採用來自玉蜀黍葉綠素a/b結合蛋白基因的3’UTR以促進核苷酸序列在植物或植物細胞中之轉錄與轉譯之組合物及方法。一些實施例係有關來自玉蜀黍葉綠素a/b結合蛋白基因的3’UTR在植物中具有終止以可操作地連接之核苷酸序列轉錄作用的功能。
