You have performed an analysis of a gene promoter using a genetic reporter and a series of deletions. From this analysis, you identify a small deletion upstream of the start codon that causes increased expression of the reporter gene, compared to the expression of the reporter when it is fused to the wild type promoter. How do you explain the increased expression of the reporter in the mutant?
