Examples of comparisons of human and mouse rp promoter sequences from -200 to +100. Exon I is in uppercase letters, highlighted in yellow with the ATG translation initiation codon, if present, highlighted in gray. The sequences evaluated for TATA box quality are highlighted in green. Putative transcription factor-binding sites in aligned sequences are shown above the sequences, highlighted in fuchsia; sites in unaligned sequences are shown above the human or below the mouse sequences and enclosed in carets. An upstream sequence identified as an insertion element is in red letters. Gaps inserted by the alignment program to maximize overall sequence identity are indicated by dashes. (a) rpS18 , (b) rpL30 , (c) rpS4 , (d) rpL13a . In rpL30 the elements with known functional relevance are underlined with asterisks.
