Abstract

The sequence of the 3'-terminal 21 nucleotides of 17S ribosomal RNA from the yeast Saccharomyces carlsbergensis has been determined to be (Y)G-m62A-m62A-C-U-C-G-C-G-G-A-A-G-G-A-U-C-A-U-U-AOH. This sequence shows extensive homology with the 3'-terminal sequence of 16S rRNA from Escherichia coli including the presence of the two adjacent N6-,N6-dimethyladenosines observed in the small subunit rRNA of eukaryotes as well as of many prokaryotes.
