GATA_box [SO_0001840]
A GATA transcription factor element containing the consensus sequence WGATAR (in which W indicates A/T and R indicates A/G). Changed to is_a SO:0001055 transcriptional_cis_regulatory_region from core_eukaryotic_promoter_element SO:0001660 after Ruth Lovering from GREEKC initiative pointed out that GATA boxes are frequently in enhancer regions, Dave Sant Aug 2020. Moved from is_a SO:0001055 transcriptional_cis_regulatory_region to SO:0000235 TF_binding_site after Colin Logie pointed out that this is a consensus sequence where transcription factors bind, GREEKC Jan 21, 2021.
