Abstract
Removal of a G-rich element from the DIF-inducible, prestalk-, and stalk-specific ecmB gene reduces expression but cell-type specificity is retained. The ecmB element will functionally substitute for a homologous sequence upstream of CP2, a cAMP-inducible gene and is bound by GBF, the factor which interacts with the CP2 G box. These results suggest that the G box may play a similar stimulatory role in these two independently regulated genes where it presumably interacts with different ancillary promoter elements.
