Variation among human 28S ribosomal RNA genes.
We report the complete 5025-base sequence of the human 28S rRNA gene. Variability within the species has been demonstrated by sequencing a variable region from six separately cloned genes. This region is one of three large subunit rRNA regions that show extreme sequence and size variation among species. The interspecies differences suggest species-specific functions for these sections, while th...
متن کاملThe sequence of 28S ribosomal RNA varies within and between human cell lines.
The primary structure of 28S ribosomal RNA constitutes a conserved core which is similar among most 23S-like rRNAs and expansion segments which occur at specific positions in the sequence. The expansion segments account for most of the size difference between prokaryotic (archaeal and eubacterial) and eukaryotic rRNAs and they exhibit a sequence variation which is unique among rRNAs. We have in...
متن کاملHuman ribosomal RNA intergenic spacer sequence.
The human rDNA tandem repeat consists of 13.3 kb of transcribed sequence and about 30 kb of intergenic spacer of unknown function. For descriptive purposes, it is convenient to divide the ribosomal repeat into 4 EcoRI fragments, A D . The C fragment contains only intergenic spacer sequences, and ends some 500 bp upstream of the ribosomal RNA promoter. We had previously described the terminal Ba...
متن کاملThe Expansion Segments of 28S Ribosomal RNA Extensively Match Human Messenger RNAs
Eukaryote ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) have expanded in the course of phylogeny by addition of nucleotides in specific insertion areas, the expansion segments. These number about 40 in the larger (25-28S) rRNA (up to 2,400 nucleotides), and about 12 in the smaller (18S) rRNA (<700 nucleotides). Expansion of the larger rRNA shows a clear phylogenetic increase, with a dramatic rise in mammals and espec...
متن کاملHuman glutamate tRNA forms stable hybrids in vitro with 28S ribosomal RNA.
A human glutamate tRNA has been shown to form stable hybrids with 28S ribosomal RNA. This tRNA was purified from HeLa cell cytoplasmic RNA by RNA-RNA solution hybridization followed by the isolation of tRNA-28S rRNA complexes by hybridization-selection with ribosomal DNA or by recovery of the 28S peak from formamide-sucrose gradients. The single hybridizing tRNA species was identified as tRNAGl...
