MEME based consensus sequences in the promoters of sHsp. The motifs obtained by MEME analysis were plotted according to their positions within the sites and their consensus sequences were presented as graphs using MEME LOGO. The occurrences of motif is sorted by P-value and aligned with each other. The E-value of motif is an estimate of the expected number of motifs with the same width and number of occurrences that would be present in a similarly sized set of random sequences. The height of symbols in each stack in the motif indicates the sequence conservation at that position. The sequences are manually highlighted to show recognized consensus HSEs: pink box-nGAAnnTTCnnGAAn or nTTCnnGAAnnTTCn showing perfect HSE, green box-showing imperfect module of HSE. All nGAAn and nTTCn are shown in orange boxes. The 'Start' indicates the distance from translational start site (ATG). Nucleotides in bold indicate the consensus bases present in HSEs.
