We characterize a DNA segment of the Euglena gracills chloroplast DNA fragment Eco-N by nucleotlde sequencing and SI nuclease analysis. We show that this region, which is upstream of the previously sequenced tuf A gene, contains the genes for the ribosomal proteins S12 and S7. The gene arrangment is 5'-rps 12-80 bp spacer-rps 7-174 bp 3pacer-tuf A, somewhat similar to the str operon of E. coll....
