Luciferase expression driven by WT and mutant motifs of selected genes in normal and serum starved (SS) cells. Sequences with the motifs to be tested were cloned upstream of the reporter sequence (Additional file 2). (a) The schematic showing sequence changes introduced in each construct with respect to the corresponding motifs in WT sequence are shown for each gene. Luciferase expression as a consequence of mutations in the indicated motifs of selected genes - (b) and (c): 14.3.3; (d) and (e): Rpl30; (f) and (g): β-amylase. In β-amylase, the effect of motif insertion was tested. SS-serum starved
