List of cis-elements identified in 908 bp ShCYC-B promoter sequence
| Name of Cis-element | Sequence | Position from ATG | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| RAP2.2 | ATCTA | -817 | RAP2.2 cis-element is conserved in promoters of genes involved in carotenoid and tocopherol biosynthesis, and certain photosynthesis- related genes in Arabidopsis. It confers strong basal activity to promoter |
| rbcS consensus sequence | AATCCAA or AATCCAAC | -759 | Influences the level of gene expression and involved in light regulated gene expression |
| GT1 consensus | GAAAAA | -224,-230, -294, -304, -386, -413, -557, -723, -809 | Consensus binding site in many light-regulated genes, GT-1 can stabilize the TFIIA-TBP- TATA box complex |
| GT1 GM SCAM4 | GAAAAA | -304, -723 | GT-1 motif found in the promoter of soybean, Interacts with a GT-1-like transcription factor |
| CArGAT consensus | CCWWWWWWGG | -643 | Cis-element found in the promoter of AtSOC1, a MADS-box flowering-time gene. Flowering Locus C (FLC) protein binds to GArG box in SOC1 promoter and represses the expression of SOC1. |
| ROOT MOTIF TAPOX1 | ATATT | -104,-409,-728 | Motif found in promoters of rolD and root-specific genes |
| ERE | AWTTCAAA | -332 | Ethylene responsive element found in tomato E4 promoter and other senescence associated gene promoters. It is required for ethylene-mediated expression. |
| L-box | AAATTAACCAAC | -323 | Part of a light-responsive element |
| CIACADIANLELHC | CAANNNNATC | -115, -273 | Region necessary for circadian expression of tomato Lhc gene |
| INRNTPSADB | YTCANTYY | -64, -168, -403 | Inr (initiator) elements found in tobacco psaDb promoter without TATA boxes, element responsible for light responsive transcription |
