This paper maps nine genes coding for zein subunits on maize chromosome 4. Six of them (Zp6h, Zpl0, Zpl4, Zpl5, Zp22) encode for subunits with a molecular weight of 22 Kd (kilodaltons), while three (Zp27, Zp28, Zp30) code 20-kd subunits. The six 22-kd related genes are not contiguous but are scatte
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 ~-zein genes. The 5' gene (gZ22.8) encodes a complete polypeptide and contains putative regulatory sequences in
