From: Effect of ATG initiation codon context motifs on the efficiency of translation of mRNA derived from exogenous genes in the transgenic silkworm, Bombyx mori

Figure 2

Construction of expression vectors. a. 14-base context motifs used in the experiment. Red and blue letters indicate the most- and least-frequent nucleotides at each position, respectively. Capital letters indicate the nucleotide of the consensus or the least-common nucleotide at each position. b. Physical maps of plasmids including a sequence around the translation initiation site of luciferase and EGFP constructs. X represents the newly designed context motif and the arrow points to translation initiation.
