Structural characteristics of the bovine SIX1 gene. (a) The detailed genomic, mRNA and protein components containing the 5′/3′-untranslated region (5′/3′-UTR), and the open reading frame (ORF). (b) 5′ Regulatory region sequence of the bovine SIX1 gene. Arrows mark the transcription initiation sites. The translational start site (ATG) is shown in red letters. The transcription factor binding sites are boxed, and primer sequences are underlined with the respective names shown below the line. The CpG island is indicated by a blue box. (c) Schematic representation of the relative loci of the E-box motif, MyoD, CEBP, SIX4, CREB, PAX7, MyoD, MEF2, TEAD4 and MEF3 motif binding sites in the SIX1 promoter. Arrows mark the motifs and transcription factors recognition sites. Dashed lines indicate the GC percentage as represented on the y-axis and the x-axis denotes the bp position in the 5′ untranslated region. Coordinates are given relative to the translational start site (shown as +1).
