  • Title: Nucleotide sequence of 5S ribosomal RNA from Aspergillus nidulans and Neurospora crassa.
    Author: Piechulla B, Hahn U, McLaughlin LW, Küntzel H.
    Journal: Nucleic Acids Res; 1981 Mar 25; 9(6):1445-50. PubMed ID: 6453331.
    Abstract:
    The nucleotide sequences of 5S rRNA molecules isolated from the cytosol and the mitochondria of the ascomycetes A. nidulans and N. crassa were determined by partial chemical cleavage of 3'-terminally labelled RNA. The sequence identity of the cytosolic and mitochondrial RNA preparations confirms the absence of mitochondrion-specific 5S rRNA in these fungi. The sequences of the two organisms differ in 35 positions, and each sequence differs from yeast 5S rRNA in 44 positions. Both molecules contain the sequence GCUC in place of GAAC or GAUY found in all other 5S rRNAs, indicating that this region is not universally involved in base-pairing to the invariant GTpsiC sequence of tRNAs.
