A putative gene of tobacco chloroplast coding for ribosomal protein similar to E. coli ribosomal protein S19

Nucleic Acids Res. 1983 Mar 25;11(6):1913-8. doi: 10.1093/nar/11.6.1913.

Abstract

A partial sequence of a cloned 3.2 Md BamHI fragment from tobacco chloroplast DNA revealed the occurrence of a putative gene for ribosomal protein. The putative gene is located on the left margin of the large single-copy region in the chloroplast DNA. The coding region contains 276 bp (92 codons). The amino acid sequence deduced from the DNA sequence shows 55% homology with that of E. coli S19 (91 amino acid residues).
