Abstract

We have determined the nucleotide sequence of a 7343 bp zein genomic clone (gZ22.8H3) from the maize inbred W64A. Computer-aided analysis of the DNA sequence revealed two contiguous 22 kDa alpha-zein genes. The 5' gene (gZ22.8) encodes a complete polypeptide and contains putative regulatory sequences in both the 5' and 3' flanking regions that are typical of zein genes. In contrast, the 3' gene (psi gZ22.8) appears to be a pseudogene, because it contains numerous insertions and deletions that would prevent translation of the mRNA. Alignment of the 5' and 3' flanking sequences of both genes indicated that they resulted from a 3.3 kb DNA duplication event.
