Figure 1.
Figure 1 Schematic of the VRR from the zen gene. Dorsal protein binding sites are shown as hatched rectangles (dl1 -dl3). Sites AT1 -AT3 contain semi-conserved AT-rich sequences that have been shown to interact with proteins (dark squares). The Dead ringer and Cut proteins bind to sites AT2 and AT3. The cognate protein for site AT1 has not been identified. Binding sites for the Dorsal switch protein 1 (NRE) and the NTF-1/Elf-1 protein (DRE) are represented by open and closed diamonds, respectively. Circles correspond to GC-rich sequences that interact with an as yet unidentified protein. The displayed region is located -1.17 to -1.35 kb from the start of transcription.
