The conserved structure of MIP genes in P. patens is consistent with their phylogenetic classification. Horizontal bars represents exons (only coding sequence), gaps being introns. Position of transmembrane helices H1 to H6, and the two half transmembrane helices HB and HE, is indicated by vertical bars. Shading of the vertical bars shows the homologous helices in the first and second halves of the MIPs. Exons and transmembrane helices as well as position of transmembrane helices are drawn to scale, but introns are only depicted schematically, the bar indicates the length of 100 bp.
