Abstract The protein sequence of a representative of the zeins, the major storage
proteins of maize, has been derived from the nucleotide sequence of a zein cDNA
clone. This cDNA was sequence both by the Maxam and Gilbert and the M13-dideoxy
techniques. The nucleotide sequence encompasses the non-translated 3' terminus
of the mRNA, the entire coding sequence specifying both the mature zein protein
and a small signal peptide, and a portion of the non-translated 5' region. The
deduced amino acid composition and the amino-terminal amino acid sequence
closely resemble those derived from chemical analysis of the zein protein
fraction. The data presented represent the first complete amino acid sequence of
a plant storage protein.
