The DNA sequence of the spacer (plus flanking) regions separating the 16S rRNA and 23S rRNA genes of two presumptive rDNA operons of the archaebacterium Methanococcus vannielii was determined. The spacers are 156 and 242 base pairs in size and they share a sequence homology of 49 base pairs following the 3' terminus of the 16S rRNA gene and of about 60 base pairs preceding the 5' end of the 23S rRNA gene. The 242 base pair spacer, in addition contains a sequence which can be transcribed into tRNAAla, whereas no tRNA-like secondary structure can be delineated from the 156 base pair spacer region. Almost complete sequence homology was detected between the end of the 16S rRNA gene and the 3' termini of either Escherichia coli or Halobacterium halobium 16S rRNA, whereas the putative 5' terminal 23S rRNA sequence shared partial homology with E. coli 23S rRNA and eukaryotic 5.8S rRNA.  相似文献

There are at least nine, and probably ten, ribosomal RNA gene sets in the genome of Bacillus subtilis. Each gene set contains sequences complementary to 16S, 23S and 5S rRNAs. We have determined the nucleotide sequences of two DNA fragments which each contain 165 base pairs of the 16S rRNA gene, 191 base pairs of the 23S rRNA gene, and the spacer region between them. The smaller space region is 164 base pairs in length and the larger one includes an additional 180 base pairs. The extra nucleotides could be transcribed in tRNAIIe and tRNA Ala sequences. Evidence is also presented for the existence of a second spacer region which also contains tRNAIIe and tRNA Ala sequences. No other tRNAs appear to be encoded in the spacer regions between the 16S and 23S rRNA genes. Whereas the nucleotide sequences corresponding to the 16S rRNA, 23S rRNA and the spacer tRNAs are very similar to those of E. coli, the sequences between these structural genes are very different.  相似文献

The nucleotide sequence of 16S rDNA from Euglena gracilis chloroplasts has been determined representing the first complete sequence of an algal chloroplast rRNA gene. The structural part of the 16S rRNA gene has 1491 nucleotides according to a comparative analysis of our sequencing results with the published 5'- and 3'-terminal "T1-oligonucleotides" from 16S rRNA from E. gracilis. Alignment with 16S rDNA from Zea mays chloroplasts and E. coli reveals 80 to 72% sequence homology, respectively. Two deletions of 9 and 23 nucleotides are found which are identical in size and position with deletions observed in 16S rDNA of maize and tobacco chloroplasts and which seem to be characteristic for all chloroplast rRNA species. We also find insertions and deletions in E. gracilis not seen in 16S rDNA of higher plant chloroplasts. The 16S rRNA sequence of E. gracilis chloroplasts can be folded by base pairing according to the general 16S rRNA secondary structure model.  相似文献

The complete range of published sequences for ribosomal RNA (or rDNA), totalling well over 50,000 bases, has been used to derive refined models for the secondary structures of both 16S and 23S RNA from E. coli. Particular attention has been paid to resolving the differences between the various published secondary structures for these molecules. The structures are described in terms of 133 helical regions (45 for 16S RNA and 88 for 23S RNA). Of these, approximately 20 are still tentative or unconfirmed. A further 20 represent helical regions which definitely exist, but where the detailed base-pairing is still open to discussion. Over 90 of the helical regions are however now precisely established, at least to within one or two base pairs.  相似文献

AIMS: To establish the specific DNA patterns in 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer (IGS) regions from different kinds of Serratia marcescens strains using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequences analysis. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two pairs of primers based on the 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA IGS were applied to amplify the rrn operons of two kinds of S. marcescens strains. About 1500 bp for 16S rDNA and four fragments of different sizes for 16S-23S rDNA IGS were obtained. PCR-amplified fragments were analysed by RFLP and sequence analysis. Two distinct restriction patterns revealing three to five bands between two kinds of strains were detected with each specific enzyme. According to the sequence analysis, two kinds of strains showed approximately 97% sequence homology of 16S rDNA. However, there was much difference in the sequences of IGS between the two kinds of strains. Intercistronic tRNA of strains H3010 and A3 demonstrated an order of tRNA of 5'-16S-tRNA(Ala)-tRNA(Ile)-23S-3', but strain B17 harboured the tRNA of 5'-16S-tRNA(Glu)-tRNA(Ile)-23S-3'. CONCLUSIONS: The method was specific, sensitive and accurate, providing a new technique for differentiating different strains from the same species. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This paper provided the first molecular characterization of 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA IGS from S. marcescens strains.  相似文献

Nucleotide sequences around kethoxal-reactive guanine residues of 23S RNA in 50S ribosomal subunits have been determined. By use of the diagonal paper electrophoresis method )Noller, H.F. (1974), Biochemistry 13, 4694-4703), 41 ribonuclease T1 oligonucleotides, originating from about 25 sites, were identified and sequenced. These sites are single stranded and accessible in free 50S subunits, and are thus potential sites for interaction with functional ligands during protein synthesis. Examination of these sequences for potential intermolecular base-pairing reveals the following: (1) There are 19 possible complementary combinations between exposed sequences in 16S and 23S RNA containing more than 4 base pairs: 15 containing 5 base pairs and 4 containing 6 base pairs. Nine of these complementary combinations contain 16S RNA sequences which we have previously shown to be protected from kethoxall by 50S subunits (Chapman, N.M., and Noller, H.F. (1977), J. Mol. Biol. 109, 131-149). (2) One of the exposed sites in 23S RNA has a sequence which is complementary to the invariant GT psi CR sequence in tRNA.  相似文献

AIMS: To clone and sequence the 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA internal spacer region (ISR) from urease-positive thermophilic Campylobacter (UPTC). METHODS AND RESULTS: The primer sets for 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA ISR amplified almost the full length of 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA ISR. About 1500 bp for 16S rDNA and about 720 bp for 16S-23S rDNA ISR of the rrn operon of four strains of UPTC were identified after molecular cloning and sequencing. CONCLUSIONS: The four strains and CCUG18267 of UPTC showed approximately 99% sequence homology of 16S rDNA to each other, 96-97% to Camp. coli, 97-98% to Camp. jejuni and 97-98% to Camp. lari. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: For the first time, the nucleotide sequence of 16S-23S rDNA ISR of UPTC has been analysed. The sequence of ISR was almost identical among the four strains of UPTC. It is interesting that the UPTC intercistronic tRNAs demonstrated an order of tRNA of 5'-16S-tRNAAla-tRNAIle-23S-3' in the organisms.  相似文献

We have determined the complete nucleotide sequence of Xenopus laevis 28S rDNA (4110 bp). In order to locate evolutionarily conserved regions within rDNA, we compared the Xenopus 28S sequence to homologous rDNA sequences from yeast, Physarum, and E. coli. Numerous regions of sequence homology are dispersed throughout the entire length of rDNA from all four organisms. These conserved regions have a higher A + T base composition than the remainder of the rDNA. The Xenopus 28S rDNA has nine major areas of sequence inserted when compared to E. coli 23S rDNA. The total base composition of these inserts in Xenopus is 83% G + C, and is generally responsible for the high (66%) G + C content of Xenopus 28S rDNA as a whole. Although the length of the inserted sequences varies, the inserts are found in the same relative positions in yeast 26S, Physarum 26S, and Xenopus 28S rDNAs. In one insert there are 25 bases completely conserved between the various eukaryotes, suggesting that this area is important for eukaryotic ribosomes. The other inserts differ in sequence between species and may or may not play a functional role.  相似文献

Recently, anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing bacteria (AAOB) were identified by comparative 16S rDNA sequence analysis as a novel, deep-branching lineage within the Planctomycetales . This lineage consists currently of only two, not yet culturable bacteria which have been provisionally described as Candidatus 'Brocadia anammoxidans' and Candidatus 'Kuenenia stuttgartiensis'. In this study, a large fragment of the rDNA operon, including the 16S rDNA, the intergenic spacer region (ISR) and approximately 2 000 bases of the 23S rDNA, was polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified, cloned and sequenced from both AAOB. The retrieved 16S rDNA sequences of both species contain an insertion at helix 9 with a previously overlooked pronounced secondary structure (new subhelices 9a and 9b). This insertion, which is absent in all other known prokaryotes, is detectable by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and thus present in the mature 16S rRNA. In contrast with the genera Pirellula , Planctomyces and Gemmata that possess unlinked 16S and 23S rRNA genes, both AAOB have the respective genes linked together by an ISR of approximately 450 bp in length. Phylogenetic analysis of the obtained 23S rRNA-genes confirmed the deep branching of the AAOB within the Planctomycetales and allowed the design of additional specific FISH probes. Remarkably, the ISR of the AAOB also could be successfully detected by FISH via simultaneous application of four monolabelled oligonucleotide probes. Quantitative FISH experiments with cells of Candidatus 'Brocadia anammoxidans' that were inhibited by exposure to oxygen for different time periods demonstrated that the concentration of transcribed ISR reflected the activity of the cells more accurately than the 16S or 23S rRNA concentration. Thus the developed ISR probes might become useful tools for in situ monitoring of the activity of AAOB in their natural environment.  相似文献

Nucleotide sequences of 5.8S rRNA gene and rDNA internal transcribed spacers ITS-1 and ITS-2 were determined in diploid wheat Triticum urartu. It was shown that 5.8S rRNA gene of this wheat species consists of 163 base pairs and GC-content is 59.5%. When comparing 5.8S rRNA sequences in diploid wheat, rice and lupine and also 5.8S rRNA in hexaploid wheat and horse beans a high evolutional conservatism of its structure was revealed. The size of ITS-1 and ITS-2 in Tr. urartu is 219 and 225 base pairs long correspondingly. While comparing structures of similar rDNA regions of Tr. urartu, rice and maize a high level of homology was found only between nucleotides adjoining genes of high molecular rRNAs. In ITS-1 of Tr. urartu an insertion of 5'-GACGACGACATTGTCCGTC-3' was found, which is absent in maize and rice.  相似文献

Secondary structure model for 23S ribosomal RNA.   总被引:31,自引:32,他引:31       下载免费PDF全文
A secondary structure model for 23S ribosomal RNA has been constructed on the basis of comparative sequence data, including the complete sequences from E. coli. Bacillus stearothermophilis, human and mouse mitochondria and several partial sequences. The model has been tested extensively with single strand-specific chemical and enzymatic probes. Long range base-paired interactions organize the molecule into six major structural domains containing over 100 individual helices in all. Regions containing the sites of interaction with several ribosomal proteins and 5S RNA have been located. Segments of the 23S RNA structure corresponding to eucaryotic 5.8S and 25 RNA have been identified, and base paired interactions in the model suggest how they are attached to 28S RNA. Functionally important regions, including possible sites of contact with 30S ribosomal subunits, the peptidyl transferase center and locations of intervening sequences in various organisms are discussed. Models for molecular 'switching' of RNA molecules based on coaxial stacking of helices are presented, including a scheme for tRNA-23S RNA interaction.  相似文献

The nucleotide sequence of a region (leader region) preceding the 5'-end of 16S-23S rRNA gene region of Euglena gracilis chloroplast DNA was compared with the homologous sequences that code for the 16S-23S rRNA operons of Euglena and E. coli. The leader region shows close homology in sequence to the 16S-23S rRNA gene region of Euglena (Orozco et al. (1980) J. Biol.Chem. 255, 10997-11003) as well as to the rrnD operon of E. coli, suggesting that it was derived from the 16S-23S rRNA gene region by gene duplication. It was shown that the leader region had accumulated nucleotide substitutions at an extremely rapid rate in its entirety, similar to the rate of tRNAIle pseudogene identified in the leader region. In addition, the leader region shows an unique base content which is quite distinct from those of 16S-23S rRNA gene regions of Euglena and E. coli, but again is similar to that of the tRNAIle pseudogene. The above two results strongly suggest that the leader region contains a pseudogene cluster which was derived from a gene cluster coding for the functional 16S-23S rRNA operon possibly by imperfect duplication during evolution of Euglena chloroplast DNA.  相似文献

A single copy of the large ribosomal 26 S rRNA gene is found in the maize mitochondrial genome. The sequence of this gene and the flanking regions has been determined using the M13 dideoxy sequencing method. The maize mt 26 S rDNA shares a high degree of homology with the Escherichia coli 23 S rDNA, and the approximate 5′ and 3′ ends of the maize 26 S rDNA have been located by comparison with the E. coli sequence. The maize mt 26 S rDNA has also been compared with the sequences of the maize chloroplast 23 S rDNA, the human mitochondrial 16 S rDNA, part of the yeast mitochondrial 21 S rDNA, and the yeast cytoplasmic 25 S rDNA. In all cases, there are numerous regions of 70% or higher homology.  相似文献

The species diversity of the phylum Rotifera has been largely studied on the basis of morphological characters. However, cladistic relationships within this group are poorly resolved due to extensive homoplasy in morphological traits, substantial phenotypic plasticity and a poor fossil record. We undertook this study to determine if a phylogeny based on partial 18S rDNA, which included the helix E23 of 18S rDNA sequence, was concordant with established taxonomic relationships within the order Ploimida (class: Monogononta). We also estimated the level of polymorphism within clones and populations of Ploimida 'species'. Finally, we included the Cycliophora Symbion pandora as outgroup and the variable helix E23 region to examine the influence of their signal on the evolutionary relationships among Acanthocephala, Bdelloidea and Ploimida. Phylogenetic reconstruction was performed using maximum parsimony, neighbour joining and maximum likelihood methods. We found 1) that morphologically similar Ploimida 'species' show vastly different 18S E23 rDNA sequences; 2) inclusion of the helix E23 of 18S rDNA and its secondary structure analysis results in better resolution of family level relationships within the Ploimida; 3) an impact of Symbion pandora as an outgroup with inclusion of the helix E23 on the relationships between the Rotifera and the Acanthocephala; and 4) partial incongruence and differential substitution rate between conserved region and helix E23 region of the 18S rDNA gene depending on the taxomic group studied.  相似文献
