[Primary and secondary structure of 3'--end of the large subunit ribosomal RNA of silkworm Attacus ricini and evolution implications as inferred from the gene sequence].
The DNA sequence of the 3'-end of LSu-rRNA coding region of silkworm Attacus ricini was determined. By comparisons with the corresponding sequence of H. sapiens, X. leavis, H. momus, A. albopictus, D. melanogaster, C. elegants, S. pombe, M. musculus and M. racemosus, we found that the coding sequence we obtained is very conserved. Phylogenetic tree inferred by Neighbor-joining Method showed that the rate of evolution of insects was much faster than vertebrate. In addition, the secondary structure has also worked out it is highly conserved.
