Comparison of L. japonicus and Arabidopsis Suc synthase gene structures from start to stop codons. Exons are represented by numbered boxes and introns by connecting lines according to Baud et al. (2004). The possible unknown exons for the partial sequence of LjSUS5 are framed by a dashed box in the AtSUS5 structure. The glycosyl transferase domain in all structures is framed. Accession numbers (and nucleotide positions of the beginning and end of coding sequence) for LjSUS1 to LjSUS6 are: AP004481 (3500–7563), AP009335 (83700–77870), AP009336 (27092–31370), AP007582 (50566–56206), AP009338 (4831–0, partial), and AP009337 (78148–83083), respectively.
