The “neuronal motif” noted previously (Thompson and Ziff, 1989; Maue et al., 1990) is also present in rat MAP1B promoter region on the coding strand. This region is compared with the promoter regions of other neuron-specific genes. The numbers refer to the nt positions within the promoter region of each gene. This motif occurs on the noncoding strand of GAP-43 and SCG10 genes and therefore is inverted when compared with other genes. Nonconsecutive sequences from the same gene are set on different lines. Spaces represent unmatched bases.
