Periodic Sequences in Drosophila Developmental Enhancers
|
-
Sequence of the eight most striking periodic clusters is shown for seven enhancers. Six of them matched to known transcription factor sites found in corresponding enhancers (see also Fig. 6). Two periodic sequences are shared between two regions: (TTTGTTTG)2 is common to eve2 andeve3+7 (Andrioli et al. 2001) and (AGGTTTC)m is common to eve4+6 andhairy7. The two periodic regions shown for evestripe 2 (TTTGTTTG)2 and (ATCCC)n, are highly conserved in evolution (see Fig. 6; Lugwig et al. 1998).
