| Abstract: | The amino acid sequence of the rat 40S ribosomal subunit protein S25 was deduced from the sequence of nucleotides in a recombinant cDNA. Ribosomal protein S25 has 125 amino acids and has a molecular weight of 13,733. Hybridization of the cDNA to digests of nuclear DNA suggests that there are 19 to 22 copies of the S25 gene. The mRNA for the protein is about 550 nucleotides in length. Rat S25 is homologous to ribosomal proteins from other eukaryotes (human and yeast). |
