Isolation and nucleotide sequence of a mouse histidine tRNA gene.

J H Han, J D Harding
PMCID: PMC320839  PMID: 6290993

Abstract

We have sequenced a 1307 base pair mouse genomic DNA fragment which contains a histidine tRNA gene. The sequence of the putative mouse histidine tRNA differs from the published sequence of sheep liver histidine tRNA by a single base change in the D-loop. It does not contain an unpaired 5' terminal G residue, as reported for Drosophila and sheep histidine tRNAs. The gene does not contain introns. The 3' flanking region contains a typical RNA polymerase III termination site of 6 consecutive T residues. 523 residues after the 3' end of the his tRNA coding region, the mouse DNA contains a sequence 72% homologous to part of the consensus sequence of the B1 (alu) family.
