The adjacent genes rpoB and rpoC code for the beta and beta' subunits of RNA polymerase in Escherichia coli, and are cotranscribed in the order given. The nearest known genes to rpoB are rplL and rplA,J,K, which code for ribosomal proteins, and which are transcribed in the same direction as the poly

β¦ Synopsis
32P-labelled DNA fragments from the E. coli beta operon were used as hybridisation probes for homologous DNA sequences in chromosomal digests of six species of Enterobacteria. In all species the hybridisation pattern suggested clustering of the genes comprising the beta operon.

The nucleotide sequence of the wheat mitochondrial 26S ribosomal RNA gene and flanking regions was determined and compared with mitochondrial 26S rRNA genes from maize and Oenothera. All three genes exhibit a high degree of homology except within two variable regions. When the plant mitochondrial 26
We have cloned and characterized the cDNA and the macronuclear genomic copy of the highly conserved ribosomal protein (r-protein) L3 of Tetrahymena thermophila. The r-protein L3 is encoded by a single copy gene interrupted by one intron. The organization of the promoter region exhibits features char
