Kinase binding patterns

Kinases, represented by the blue billiard-shaped balls, can bind to many different regions of a gene. Figures A and B show kinases bound to regulatory regions, where transcription factors and certain chromatin modifying complexes attach. In figure C, the kinase is bound to the protein-coding region of a gene, where the transcription apparatus reads the protein recipe.

(The graphs above each image are computerized confirmations that the kinase overlaps with these particular molecules. Each blue line represents a kinase, whereas the purple line represents the transcription factor, the green represents chromatin modifying complex, and red the transcription apparatus.)
