Gene expression of Longifolia 1-like and protein conformations associated with the non-synonymous change at the locus 3:183386147. (a) Relative gene expression level of Longifolia 1-like in leaves and fruits at different developmental stages in four C. annuum accessions. The average and confidence interval of three replicates is reported for each accession. L = leaf; F1 = fruit set (7 days post anthesis); F2 = immature fruit (35 days post anthesis); F3 = mature fruit (fully developed fruits, over 60 days post anthesis). (b) Predicted protein structure for Longifolia 1-like. The whole model of the protein is represented by a backbone ribbon with helices in red and turns in green. Arrows indicate the structural regions, i.e. N-terminal domain, not structured connection segment, central domain, not structured connection segment, C-terminal domain. The region of the central domain including the residue number 367 (containing the 3:183386147 T → C variant) and the closer side chains (Phe380 and Thr425) is enlarged in spacefill representation in two versions, with the leucine and the phenylalanine residues. The representation with the leucine highlights the compactness of the interactions between Leu367, Phe380 and Thr42).
