title: Location and nucleotide sequence of the genes for tobacco chloroplast tRNAArg (ACG) and tRNALeu(UAG).
abstract: The location and nucleotide sequence of the genes and flanking regions for tRNAArg(ACG) and tRNALeu(UAG) on tobacco chloroplast DNA have been determined. The gene arrangement is 5S rRNA-260 bp-tRNAArg-581 bp-tRNAAsn-5.2 kbp-tRNALeu. The tRNAArg and tRNALeu genes are expressed in the chloroplasts. The opposite strand of the tRNAArg gene contains a tRNAArg-like sequence. The tRNAArg, tRNAAsn and tRNALeu coding regions are contained in open reading frames.
