title: Structural organization of the gene encoding corn cystatin.
abstract: A genomic DNA clone encoding corn cystatin, a cysteine proteinase inhibitor of corn, was isolated from a lambda EMBL3 phage genomic library. The genomic DNA clone spans approximately 2.2 kb and consists of three exons and two introns. The exon number and the intron breakpoints coincide with those of the genes for two types of oryzacystatin.
