DNA
locations with the
consensus sequence
CANNTG. ENHANCER
ELEMENTS
may contain multiple copies of this element. E-boxes play a regulatory
role
in the
control
of transcription. They bind with basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) type
TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS
. Binding specificity is determined by the specific bHLH heterodimer or homodimer combination and by the specific
nucleotides
at the 3rd and 4th position of the E-box sequence.
