Characterization of a Thioredoxin-1 Gene from Taenia solium and Its Encoding Product

Figure 1

Genomic (gDNA) and complementary DNA (cDNA) nucleotides sequences and deduced protein from Taenia solium thioredoxin-1. Putative transcription factors sites (Nrf2, TBP, and XBP-1) are placed inside a box; DPE is in a white letter inside the grey box; TSS inside the Inr is underlined and signalized by an arrow. Start (ATG) and stop (TGA) codons are inside the box; donor (GT) and acceptor (AG) introns sequences are underlined. Putative branch point is underlined by a black bar; putative U1 and U2AF splicing binding sites are in grey inside a box; polyadenylation sites are indicated by asterisks . Thioredoxin residues from the active site (CGPC) are highlighted in white on a black background.
