Fig. 6. Possible NF-
B-like binding sites within the VEGF 5'-promoter
region. Sequences that differ at the level of one or two positions from the
decameric
B-like binding sites (5'-HGGARNYYCC-3', where H
indicates A, C, or T; R indicates A or G; Y indicates C or T; N indicates any
nucleotide) and NF-
B-like consensus sequence
(5'-GGGRNNYYCC-3', where R indicates A or G, Y indicates C or T,
and N indicates any nucleotide) in the VEGF promoter
(Tischer et al., 1991) are
highlighted (bold and underlined).
