Fig. 1. Structure of porcine amelogenin genes.

Fig. 1

Boxes indicate the 7 amelogenin exons. Unfilled boxes correspond to the amelogenin-coding region ; patterned boxes correspond to exonic non-coding regions. The DNA sequences in the X and Y copies of the porcine amelogenin genes are identical in the coding regions for the secreted protein (solid line), but differ in the coding regions for the signal peptides (dashed line).
