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).
