n-mers Z-score Regulation mode Probable role Consensus matches to n-mer in the PLACE 25.0.1 database
AAAT** 3.5 Positive Dehydration responsive Matched AAAT at offset 4 in CACTAAATTGTCAC 14BPATERD1: “14 bp region” (from −599 to −566) necessary for expression of erd1 (early responsive to dehydration) in dehydrated Arabidopsis
ATAA** 4.0 Positive Sugar responsive Matched ATAA at offset 2 in ACATAAAATAAAAAAAGGCA −314MOTIFZMSBE1: located between −314 and −295 region of maize (Z.m.) Sbe1 gene promoter; critical positive cis element; important for the high-level, sugar-responsive expression of the Sbe1 gene in maize endosperm cells; recognized by nuclear protein
ATAT** 2.7 Positive/negative MADS domain Matched [AT][AT][AT][AT] at offset 5 in TTDCCWWWWWWGGHAA AGAMOUSATCONSENSUS: binding consensus sequence of Arabidopsis (A.t.) AGAMOUS MADS domain
AATA 3.3 Positive Sugar-responsive Matched AATA at offset 6 in ACATAAAATAAAAAAAGGCA −314MOTIFZMSBE1: Located between −314 and −295 region of maize (Z.m.) Sbe1 gene promoter; critical positive cis element; important for the high-level, sugar-responsive expression of the Sbe1 gene in maize endosperm cells; recognized by nuclear protein
TTAT 3.1 Positive Sugar responsive, binding activity to Myb core Matched AATA at offset 6 in ACATAAAATAAAAAAAGGCA −314MOTIFZMSBE1: located between −314 and −295 region of maize (Z.m.) Sbe1 gene promoter; critical positive cis element; important for the high-level, sugar-responsive expression of the Sbe1 gene in maize endosperm cells; recognized by nuclear protein; matched TATT at offset 2 in TTTATTTACCAAACGGTAACATC23BPUASNSCYCB1: “23 bp UAS (Upstream activating sequence)” found in the promoter of Nicotiana sylvestris (N.s.) CycB1 gene; located between −386 and −409; contains a 5 bp element identical to the MYB binding core (ACGT); required for M-phase-specific expression; binds protein complexes in a cell cycle-regulated manner
ATCA** 4.5 Positive/negative MADS domain, homeobox binding domain Matched [AT][AT][ACGT][ACGT] at offset 8 in NTTDCCWWWWNNGGWAAN AGL1ATCONSENSUS: binding consensus sequence of Arabidopsis (A.t.) AGL1 (AGAMOUS-like 1); AGL1 contains MADS domain; see S000339; AGL20 is a MADS domain gene from Arabidopsis that is activated in shoot apical meristem during the transition to flowering; AGL20 is also regulated by the Gibberellin pathway; complex regulatory net works involving several MADS-genes underlie development of vegetative structures
GAAG** 4.0 Positive ABA-responsive, MADS Matched GAAG at offset 6 in ATGTACGAAGC ABAREG2: motif related to ABA regulation; gene: sunflower helianthinin; transacting factor: bZIP? Matched [ACGT][ACGT][AT][ACGT] at offset 0 in NNWNCCAWWWWTRGWWAN AGL2ATCONSENSUS: binding consensus sequence of Arabidopsis (A.t.) AGL2 (AGAMOUS-like 2); AGL2 contains MADS domain; AGL2 binds DNA as a dimer
CGAA 2.4 Positive ABA-responsive Matched CGAA at offset 5 in ATGTACGAAGC ABAREG2: motif related to ABA regulation; gene: sunflower helianthinin; transacting factor: bZIP?
