Summary: | The band patterns of zein polypeptides were determined for many commercial inbred corn lines and maize stocks using isofocusing in agarose gels and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-urea gels. Each inbred line or homozygous maize strain genotype has a distinct zein profile which has been catalogued according to the distance of charge migration and molecular weight (kilodaltons). Several zein polypeptides were mapped to chromosomes 4 and 10 with the use of reciprocal translocations. The mapping of at least two polypeptides on distal 4L and 10L had not been previously reported. The general methods used in the present research will permit the mapping of all the zein polypeptides to chromosomal sites. |
