Sequence features of the human PINK1 gene promoter. (A) The genomic organization of human PINK1 gene on chromosome 1. E represents exon. ATG is the translation start codon and TGA is the stop codon. (B) The nucleotide sequence of the human PINK1 gene from −1799 to +97 bp. The adenine +1 represents the transcription start site. The putative transcription factor binding sites are underlined in bold face. (C) SMARTer-RACE was performed to map the PINK1 transcription start site. The PCR product was run on a 1.5% agarose gel. (D) The PCR product was cloned into pcDNA4 vector and sequenced to identify the transcription start site. The first base after the adapter is the TSS from which is underlined.
