Figure 5.
The AOP2 5' regulatory region sequence. The sequence of the AOP2 5' regulatory region in the Col, Ler, St, Pi and Cvi accessions is shown. The accession to which the sequence pertains is indicated at the end of sequence; Co = Col, P = Pi, L = Ler, S = St and Cv = Cvi. The sequence changes between the accessions are highlighted in gray. Each sequencing reaction was performed three times on different PCR products to ensure accuracy of the sequence. Putative light and diurnal response elements found in the AOP2 5' regulatory region are highlighted. Yellow; GATA/I box (GATAA) and GT box (GRWAAW where R = A/G and W = A/T): Blue; CBS (AAAAAATCT), ME (CCACAC) and TBX (AAACCCT): Green; FORCA/PBX element (T/ATGGGC/ATGGGCC). The translation initiating ATG codon at the end of the sequence is in bold.
