The similar process was used to get Motif 2 (DEC1/2 sequence near Orange domain) and Motif 3 (DEC1 sequence in C-terminal). The overall height of each stack indicates the sequence conservation at that position, whereas the height of symbols within each stack reflects the relative frequency of the corresponding amino acid.
