title: Nucleotide sequence of cloned cDNA specific for rat ribosomal protein L31.
abstract: A cDNA clone, specific for rat ribosomal protein L31, was isolated by hybrid-selected translation from a cDNA library made for 8-9-S poly(A)-rich RNA from regenerating rat liver. The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA was determined. It consists of 25 base pairs from the 5' leading sequence, the entire coding sequence of 378 base pairs and the 3' trailing sequence of 36 base pairs besides the poly(A) tail. The primary structure of protein L31 was deduced from the nucleotide sequence. It consists of 124 amino acids with a relative molecular mass of 14,331. The calculated amino acid composition is consistent with the reported composition determined for the hydrolysate of L31. The amino acid sequence showed marked homology with that of yeast ribosomal protein L34.
