This open reading frame is common to both melanogaster and hydei exon C2. Conserved blocks of sequence identified in figure 1C are boxed and labeled. Sequences representing E boxes are painted gray but are otherwise unlabeled. Mef2 sites and PCE sites are labeled and boxed. Trivial alignments of sequence were not included and the relative position of unannotated sequence is not meant to imply a preferred alignment.
Dots represent gaps introduced to maximize the alignment.
Restriction enzyme sites used to construct reporter genes are underlined.
