Abstract

We report here that the sequence ofP. vulgaris mitochondrial and cytoplasmic tRNA^Leu (NAA) are identical except for a post-transcriptional modification. There is an unidentified modification at the “wobble” position which, from the sequence of the nuclear tRNA^Leu gene, we identify as a derivative of C. We also show that thisP. vulgaris nuclear gene is functional by demonstrating its transcription in anin vivo eukaryotic transcription system.
