Table 1 Motifs detected in pro-SmAMP2 gene promoter sequence (based on the results of analysis by PLACE and PlantCARE programs)
From: Novel strong promoter of antimicrobial peptides gene pro-SmAMP2 from chickweed (Stellaria media)
Motif | Description |
|---|---|
5UTR Py-rich stretch | region in the 5primeUTR conferring high transcription levels without the need for other upstream cis-elements except for a TATA-box |
GCN4_motif | cis-regulatory element involved in endosperm expression |
TGACG-motif, CGTCA-motif | cis-acting regulatory element involved in the MeJA-responsiveness |
GT1-motif | light responsive element |
ARE (anaerobic responsive element) | cis-acting regulatory element essential for the anaerobic induction |
MRE | MYB binding site involved in light responsiveness |
ACE | cis-acting element involved in light responsiveness |
TC-rich repeats | cis-acting element involved in defense and stress responsiveness |
Skn-1_motif | cis-acting regulatory element required for endosperm expression |
MBS | MYB binding site involved in drought-inducibility |
G-box | cis-acting regulatory element involved in light responsiveness |
AC-I | element involved in negative regulation on phloem expression; and responsible for restricting the vascular expression to the xylem |
TCA-element | cis-acting element involved in salicylic acid responsiveness |
I box | part of a light responsive element |
TGA-element | auxin-responsive element |
W-box | wounding and pathogen elicitor response |
S box | wounding and pathogen elicitor response |
CAAT-box | common cis-acting element in promoter and enhancer regions |
TATA-box | core promoter element around −30 of transcription start |
