Figure 3

Multiple alignment of Bov-A2 sequences found in TP53 P1 promoter. The Bov-A2 consensus sequence is based on literature survey (Onami et al. [16]), and its components’ boundaries are marked. All sequences were determined experimentally, except the Tibetan antelope which was discovered by computational means. Mutations are highlighted: deletion (−) in light gray, nucleotide change in dark gray, and insertion in intermediate gray (a unique insertion in addax in marked by asterisk, and the sequence is depicted at the end of the line). Reverse complement sequences are shown for these species in which the Bov-A2 was inserted in reverse orientation (antelope, ibex, goat, sheep, wildebeest, gazelle).
