TATA motifs in bidirectional promoters. (A) TATA motifs were mapped in the 500 bp regions upstream of TSSs and 100 bp downstream for bidirectional promoters and nonbidirectional promoters. (B) The percentage of genes with TATA motifs as measured at the functional position at -30 bp upstream of the TSS. A range from -44 to -20 was used to accommodate some error in the annotations. The full promoter regions from positions -500 to +100 contains many occurrences of TATA motifs, however based on the characterized mechanism of the TATA motif, these are false positive predictions.
