The 3' end of large ribosomal subunit RNA from mosquito mitochondria: homogeneity of transcribed moieties.
3' Terminal sequences of mosquito mitochondrial 16 S ribosomal RNA, which is post-transcriptionally polyadenylated, have been examined with the aim of determining the degree of homogeneity of transcribed moieties. 3' End-labeled samples were subjected to oligonucleotide fingerprint analysis and to ladder gel analysis after primary and secondary nuclease digestion; and products of reverse transcriptase reactions were characterized using 16 S RNA as template and selected oligodeoxynucleotides as primers. The results indicated a remarkable degree of homogeneity compared to homologous mammalian mitochondrial systems, and suggested differences in modes of expression of insect, versus mammalian, mitochondrial genomes.
