From: Patterns of enrichment and acceleration in evolutionary rates of promoters suggest a role of regulatory regions in cetacean gigantism

Fig. 4

Closer look at the enrichment pattern for the NCAPG promoter implemented in the Ciiider program. The result shows transcription factors in bars. TEF and PBX1, highlighted in blue, are present only in Physeter catodon, Eschrichtius robustus, Eubalaena japonica, Eubalaena australis, Eubalaena glacialis, Megaptera novaeangliae, Balaenoptera physalus, and Balaenoptera musculus that are giant cetaceans, and FOXP3 and ZBTB33, highlighted in red, only in non-giant cetaceans such Tursiops truncatus, Orcinus orca, Lipotes vexillifer, Phocoena sinus, and Balaenoptera acutorostrata scammoni
