Figure 2.

Nucleotide sequence of the 5′ flanking region of the murine A1 gene. The DNA-binding motif for Rel/NF-κB located at residues −488 to −479 is boxed. The italicized sequence represents A1 transcript, with nucleotides +1 to +149 (regular type) corresponding to 5′ untranslated sequence and +150 to +155 (boldface type) representing coding sequence (GenBank accession no. 515003). The A1 transcription and translation initiation sites, indicated by the raised and inverted arrows, respectively, were determined by Lin et al. (1993).
