Figure 3. Genomic organization and sequence similarity between the SSGP-11C1 and SSGP-11C2-encoding genes. A: Sequence similarity. The sequence alignment was generated by the BLASTN program. The bars with different colors represent different levels of conservation between these two genes. The alignment is divided into different regions according to their functions, including promoter, transcribed region (regions coding for signal peptide and mature protein), and 3′-region. A single intron is within the region coding for the signal peptide. “TATA” indicates where the putative TATA box is located. B: Genomic organization. The boxed regions represent exons with the coding region in black.
