From: The Zea mays mutants opaque-2 and opaque-7 disclose extensive changes in endosperm metabolism as revealed by protein, amino acid, and transcriptome-wide analyses

Figure 5

Schematic representation of amino acid biosynthetic pathways. Leu, Ile, Val, Thr, Met, Cys, Ser, and Gly (A) and Phe, Tyr, and Trp (B) biosynthesis pathways are indicated. Those steps associated with enzymes exhibiting an altered expression profile in the mutant endosperms analyzed with respect to the wt endosperm are marked. ESTs revealing an altered expression profile in A69Yo2 (1), A69Yo7 (2) endosperm, and both the A69Yo2 and A69Yo7 endosperms (3) are indicated.
