TABLE 3.
Sequence alignment of NAC-binding sites
| Nucleotide importancea | Gene(s) | Nucleotide sequence |
|---|---|---|
| Very important | putP | .ATA..........AT...T |
| hutU | .ATAA.........AT.... | |
| Moderately important | putP | CATA.G.T.T...TAT...T |
| hutU | TATAA.A.....GTAT.... | |
| Consensus | putP, hutU, ureD | .ATA......T.GTAT.... |
Nucleotides indicated as very important or moderately important reduce NAC binding severely or moderately, respectively, if mutated. The consensus sequence is for the 20-bp region from each of the NAC-binding sites of the indicated genes.
