The β-amy1 gene organization. Top, Schematic presentation of the β-amy structural gene. The β-amy1 ORF is composed of seven exons (black boxes) interrupted by six introns (numerals I–VI) located within a DNA fragment of approximately 5 kb. ATG, TAG, and gray box indicate the translational start and stop codons and the approximately 1.3-kb promoter, respectively. Bottom, Sequence alignment of the 5′-proximal ends of intron III from β-amy1 alleles of H. spontaneum PI 296897 (2), cv Adorra (3), and cv Haruna Nijo (4). Line 1 shows the amino acid sequence (residues 195–205) encoded by the DNA sequence upstream of intron III. The sequences of intron III from the β-amy1 allele of line 86-H2-64 (not shown) and H. spontaneum PI 296897 (2) are identical. The β-amy1 genomic sequences are in the EMBL-GenBank database under accession numbers AF061204 (H. spontaneum PI 296897), AF061203 (cv Adorra), and D49999 (cv Haruna Nijo).
