***Does anyone recognize the following palindromic binding site?***
tttattccGCTATCGATAGCatatacac
This element occurs upstream of the yolk protein genes 1 and 2 of
Drosophila
melanogaster. It functions as an activator of transcription in vitro, and
boosts
follicle cell-specific, but not fat body-specific expression in vivo.
I would appreciate any information you might have about related binding
sites, or
in broader scope, about elements with similar function in other systems.
Thanks for your help.
