Comparison of 16S rRNA variables with matched protein mRNA and randomized RNA controls (original data in Tables above). Error bars show SD. The mean number of matches found within the E. coli genome was greatest for the 16S rRNA, as was the mean number of perfect identities, length of the sequences with identical sequences and the number of identical amino acid matches found within each match was significantly greater for the 23S rRNA than for the mRNA of the proteins controls or the randomized RNA sequences.
