Alignment of consensus Pet-1 elements previously identified (Hendricks et al. 1999), as well as putative additional elements in the 5-HT1A promoter identified using the Transcription Element Search Software (TESS) (Schug 2008), including their respective positions with respect to the start ATG and presence on the coding (F) or non-coding (R) strand. 5-HTT, serotonin transporter; AADC, amino acid decarboxylase; TPH1, tryptophan hydroxylase-1; PEA3, polyomavirus enhancer activator 3. R=G or A, M=A or C. Highlighted is the position of the minimal GGAA Pet-1 binding core.
