Figure 2From: The Putzig partners DREF, TRF2 and KEN are involved in the regulation of the Drosophila telomere retrotransposons, HeT-A and TARTDREF binding sites. Nucleotide sequence alignment of TART A, B, and C subfamilies using ClustalW software. (A) TART 5′ UTR alignment; DREF binding site is 100% conserved in all TART subfamilies. (B) TART 3′ UTR alignment; DREF binding site is only conserved in the TART A subfamily. The alignment was performed for each domain, 5′ UTR, open reading frame, and 3′ UTR, but only the region corresponding to the DREF binding site is shown. Numbers on the right of the alignment refer to the position corresponding to each sequence.Back to article page
