Alignment of 5′ and 3′ end sequences of H-Fibroin gene of B. mori (B.m., AF226688), B. mandarina (B.man., X03973.1), G. mellonella (G.m., AF095239 and AF095240), A. assama (A.a., KJ862544), A. mylitta (A.m., AY136274), A. yamamai (A.y., AB542805) and A. pernyi (A.p., AF083334). A. assama H-fibroin sequence is deliberately placed in the middle for comparison with other saturniids and also other lepidopterans. Coding regions are represented in upper case, and the non-coding ones in lower case. Black arrowheads mark the transcription start and end, while the gray arrowheads mark the intron boundaries. Translation start codon is boldfaced. The nucleotides are numbered from each exon-start. (A) represents the aligned 5′ sequences and a stretch of upstream non-coding region of H-fibroin. Intron is represented in lower case and italicized. TATA motif and start codon are boldfaced. (B) the alignment shows coding and non-coding 3′ regions of H-fibroin. Stop codon and polyadenylation signal motif are boldfaced.
