The nucleotide sequence of spinach chloroplast methionine elongator tRNA

The nucleotide sequence of spinach chloroplast methionine elongator tRNA (sp.chl. tRNAmMet) has been determined. This tRNA is considerably more homologous to E. coli tRNAmMet (67% homology) than to the three known eukaryotic tRNAmMet (50–55% homology). Sp.chl. tRNAmMet, like the eight other chloropl...

Zusammenfassung:The nucleotide sequence of spinach chloroplast methionine elongator tRNA (sp.chl. tRNAmMet) has been determined. This tRNA is considerably more homologous to E. coli tRNAmMet (67% homology) than to the three known eukaryotic tRNAmMet (50–55% homology). Sp.chl. tRNAmMet, like the eight other chloroplast tRNAs sequenced, contains a methylated GG sequence in the dihydrouridine loop and lacks unusual structural features which have been found in several mitochondrial tRNAs.
