Promoter regions of aflatoxin biosynthetic and antioxidant genes used in electrophoretic mobility shift assays. (A) Schematic representation of the relevant genes in the aflatoxin gene cluster. (B) Schematic of fas-2/fas-1 intergenic region. The fas-2/fas-1 intergenic region was divided into two fragments designated Fas2 and Fas1. The Fas1 fragment was further subdivided into two smaller fragments designated Fas1-b and Fas1-a. Five putative cis-acting sites are shown including CRE and stress-response element (STRE) sites. The position of a 28-bp Fas competitor is shown. (C) Schematic of norA/ver-1 intergenic region. The norA/ver-1 intergenic region was divided into two fragments designated Ver1-b and Ver1-a. Six putative cis-acting sites are shown including CRE and STRE sites. The position of 55-bp Ver1 and Ver1 m competitors is shown. (D) Schematic of omtA/ordA intergenic region. The omtA/ordA intergenic region was divided into two fragments designated OmtA and OrdA. Ten putative cis-acting sites are shown including CRE and STRE sites. (E) Schematic of mycelial cat1 promoter region designated Mcat1. The mycelial cat1 promoter region was divided into two fragments designated Mcat1-b and Mcat1-a. Five putative cis-acting sites are shown including CRE and STRE sites. (F) Schematic of Mn sod promoter region designated Msod. Five putative cis-acting sites are shown including CRE and STRE sites.
