title: Analysis of large specific T1 oligonucleotides of 17S and 25S ribosomal RNAs from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
abstract: The primary structure of 17S and 25S ribosomal RNAs from Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been analysed by two-dimensional fractionation of T1 oligonucleotides. This method consists of an electrophoresis at pH 3.5 followed by a homochromatography on DEAE-cellulose plates. After the second dimension, the large T1 oligonucleotides were hydrolyzed by pancreatic RNAse, followed by alkaline hydrolysis of the pancreatic products. By fractionating a mixture of tritiated HeLa cell ribosomal RNAs and 32 P yeast cell ribosomal RNAs, two autoradiographs were obtained; one corresponding to the 32P labelled material and the other to the tritiated labelled material. By superposition of the two autoradiographs, the mobility of the various T1 oligonucleotides can be accurately compared and it is shown that yeast 17S rRNA and human 18S rRNA have in common 5 large oligonucleotides and that yeast 25S rRNA and human 28S rRNA have 4 identical oligonucleotides.
