title: Localization and nucleotide sequences of the tRNA GCC (Gly) , tRNA GUC (Asp) and tRNA GCA (Cys) genes from wheat chloroplast.
abstract: The location on the wheat chloroplast DNA map and the nucleotide sequences of the genes coding for tRNA GCC (Gly) (trnG-GCC), tRNA GUC (Asp) (trnD-GUC) and tRNA GCA (Cys) (trnC-GCA) have been determined. These three genes are located in the large single copy region of the chloroplast genome, about half-way between one of the inverted repeats and the gene for the α subunit of ATP synthase. They are located on two Bam H1 fragments, called B6 and B18 by Bowmanet al. (1), which are separated by about 450 bp and which were cloned in our laboratory to allow sequencing. ThetrnD-GUC andtrnC-GCA sequences show 98.6 and 89% homology, respectively, with the corresponding spinach chloroplast tRNA genes sequences (2), which are the only other higher plant chloroplasttrnD-GUC andtrnC-GCA sequenced so far, while no othertrnG-GCC sequence has been published. ThetrnG-GCC sequence shows only 58% homology with the corresponding gene sequence inEuglena chloroplasts (3).
