Hs/Mm: Homo sapiens/Mus musculus; Gg: Gallus gallus; Xl: Xenopus laevis; Fr: Fugu rubripes; Om: Oreochromis mossambicus (tilapia). For the initiator sequences, C represents an alleged tsp based on various types of experimental evidence. For the transcription factor binding sites, only those sites that are conserved (aligned) between human and mouse are listed. A † symbol indicates that the promoter contains an unaligned site for the factor. Designation of AUG locations as in Table 1.
