Alignment of the two consensus 5'-ends of the S. cephaloptera ribosomal protein genes. The 28 nucleotides region named n°2 has been found in 249 ESTs putatively encoding for 28 different SSU RPs, and in 319 ESTs putatively encoding for 37 different LSU RPs. The 28 nucleotides region of the sequence n°1 has been found in 75 ESTs putatively encoding for 25 different SSU RPs and in 96 ESTs putatively encoding for 29 different LSU RPs. The stars (*) indicate nucleotides which are conserved between these two sequences. The nucleotide regions which differ between these two sequences have been underlined and have named respectively TAC consensus site and TTT consensus site. The nucleotides which are conserved between these two consensus sites and Tinman/Nkx2.5 binding consensus sites are indicated in bold letters; K representing T or G.
