Abstract

The nucleotide sequence of tRNATyr from B. stearothermophilus has been determined: pG-G-A-G-G-G-G-s4U-A-G-C-G-A-A-G-U-Gm-G-C-U-A-A-m1A-C-G-C-G-G-C-G-G-A-C-U-Q-U-A-ms2i6A-A-psi-C-C-G-C-U-C-C-C-U-U-U-G-G-G-U-U-C-G-G-C-G-G-T-psi-C-G-A-A-U-C-C-G-U-C-C-C-C-C-U-C-C-A-C-C-AOH. A combination of classical fingerprinting methods, partial nuclease P1 digestion and two-dimensional homochromatography and a rapid "read off" sequencing gel technique were used to establish the complete nucleotide sequence.
