title: Two thraustochytrid 5S ribosomal RNAs.
abstract: The complete nucleotide sequences of the 5S ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) of two thraustochytrids, Thraustochytrium visurgense and Schizochytrium, aggregatum, are AUGAGCCCUCAUAUCAUGUGGAGUGCACCGGAUCUCAUCCGAACUCCGUAGUUAAGCCACAUAGAGCGCGUC UAGUACUGCCGUAGGGGACUAGGUGGGAAGCACGCGUGGGGCUCAUU and ACAGCCGUUCAUACCACACGGAGA AUACCGGAUCUCGUUCGAACUCCGCAGUCAAGCCGUGUCGGGCGUGCUCAGUACUACCAUAGGGGACUGGGUGGGA AGCGUGCGUGACGGCUGUU, respectively. These sequences are discussed in terms of the apparent unity in secondary structure and strong divergence in primary structure exhibited by protist 5S rRNAs.
