Fig. 2.
The 5′ flanking genomic DNA sequence.
The nucleotide sequence of the 5′ flanking genomic DNA of the human ankyrin-1 gene is shown. Consensus sequences for potential DNA-protein binding sites are underlined. The location of the initiator methionine codon is underlined and in bold. The junction between exon 1 and intron 1 is shown by the inverted triangle.
