Fig. 5. Structure of the quail metallothionein gene. The chicken gene sequence had been determined (1). (A) A comparison of the chicken and quail metallothionein gene coding regions. The rightward pointing arrow represents the transcription start site at +1. The numbers along the bottom of each line represent the base pair where each structure occurs as indicated. The poly(A) site for each gene is designated as AAATAAA. (B) A comparison between the chicken and quail metallothionein gene promoter region. The rightward pointing arrow represents the transcription start site at +1. The numbers along the bottom of each line represent the base pair where each element occurs as indicated.
