Figure 3From: Multiple independent evolutionary solutions to core histone gene regulationSchema for core histone gene promoters. (a) Four different human core histone gene promoters are shown along with the relative locations of predicted cis-binding motifs. Official gene names are indicated for each promoter. These are examples of genes that are not divergently transcribed because a pair of divergently transcribed genes share identical motifs. (b) Yeast (S. cerevisiae) bidirectional core histone promoters and cis-binding motifs. The promoter sequences and, accordingly, the location/presence of the cis-motifs of individual members of each family may vary for each gene. Not drawn to scale.Back to article page
