title: Sequence of the yeast iso-1-cytochrome c mRNA.
abstract: The nucleotide sequence of the yeast iso-1-cytochrome c (CYC1) mRNA is presented. The mRNA was enriched by hybridization to cloned CYC1 DNA attached to a solid matrix: either nitrocellulose filters or diazobenzyloxymethyl cellulose powder. The sequence of the 5'-end of the mRNA was determined by the extension of a CYC1-specific dodecanucleotide primer; the sequence of the 3'-end was determined using a decanucleotide d(pT8-G-A) primer. The CYC1 mRNA begins 61 nucleotides 5' to the AUG initiation codon, extends through the coding sequence to 172 to 175 nucleotides 3' to the UAA termination codon, followed by the poly(A) tail. There are no intervening sequences. Some of the sequences that the CYC1 mRNA shares in common with other eukaryotic mRNAs are discussed.
