Abstract

A clone containing a gene coding for a novel glycine-rich protein has been identified in an Arabidopsis thaliana genomic library. The gene codes for a 339 amino acid protein and is interrupted by a 686 bp intervening sequence. The gene is present in one copy only. Transcripts accumulate mainly in hypocotyls and stems and the highest level is observed in rosettes before the start of stem elongation. The protein contains 71% of glycine residues and is highly hydrophobic.
