Secondary structure model for an unusual SSU rRNA from the extremely thermophilic bacterium strain AZ3 B.1.
The SSU rRNA gene of the extremely thermophilic bacterium strain AZ3 B.1, encodes an rRNA containing four large inserts. A secondary structure model has been constructed which predicts that the inserts form large stem loop structures with a common sequence motif at the base of the helices. To date, these structures have only been detected in related, thermophilic organisms.
