From: Implications of high level pseudogene transcription in Mycobacterium leprae
Promoter-like sequences upstream of transcribed M. leprae pseudogenes. This figure shows representative alignments of promoter-like sequences for M. leprae pseudogenes and their mycobacterial homologs. Panel A & B represent the pyrR (ML0531) and rpmB (ML1674) upstream promoter-like regions containing -35 and -10 regions and initiation site (I) in relationship to their ribosomal binding sites (RBS) and translational start codons (Start), respectively. * indicates identical nucleic acids in all strains.
