Figure 6From: Molecular phylogeny of the antiangiogenic and neurotrophic serpin, pigment epithelium derived factor in vertebratesRepetitive elements in the PEDF promoter and gene. The promoter regions and genes are drawn to scale and the regions containing repetitive elements are shown in grey. A large portion of the 5 kb upstream region of human and mouse PEDF consists of repetitive elements. Repeats are localized to the promoter and introns of the gene. Open box, genome; black box, repeat regions; arrow, transcription initiation sites.Back to article page
