Transcription Element Search System (TESS) analysis of the Aγ-globin and Gγ-globin promoters (www.cbil.upenn.edu/cgi-bin/tess/tess). Binding site positions are identified relative to the cap site as recorded in the 81 706-kilobase β-locus sequence (GenBank accession no., gi:28380636, NG_000007).

DTF-1 indicates Drosophila transcription factor-1; NF-ATc, nuclear factor of activated T cells; Ets-related protein; RSRFC4, serum response factor–related protein; EVE, even-skipped; Oct-3, octomer 3; USF, upstream stimulatory factor; PEA3, polyoma virus enhancer A3; INSAF, insulin activator factor; E12, immunoglobulin enhancer binding factor; IRF, interferon-related factor-1; TBP, TATA binding protein; GR, glucocorticoid receptor; E2BP, estrogen binding protein; PPAR, peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor α; UME6, upstream repression sequence 1 binding protein 6

*

The binding sites shown are from base – 1500 to – 1350 relative to the Aγ-globin and Gγ-globin cap sites

T/G indicates an SNP in the TBP binding site
