Figure 3: Motif analysis of VRN1-HA-binding sequences.
From: Direct links between the vernalization response and other key traits of cereal crops
(a) Motif analysis of VRN1-HA bound sequences using MEME software. For the distribution of a single motif among the sequences, the parameter was set to zero or one per sequence. (b) The distribution of the CArG box motif within the VRN1-HA-binding regions. (c) Distribution of locations of binding sites relative to target genes. Definitions: promoter is a sequence within 3 kb upstream of TSS (transcription start site); 3′ end is the sequence within 1 kb downstream of TTS (transcription termination site); gene body is dissected into 5′UTR, CDS, intron and 3′UTR; intergenic is anything outside the above regions.
