چکیده

The alignment of gene sequences coding for A. nidulans mitochondrial L-rRNA and E. coli 23S rRNA indicates a strong conservation of primary and potential secondary structure of both rRNA molecules, except that homologies to the 5'-terminal 5.8S-like region and the 3'-terminal 4.5S-like region of bacterial rRNA are not detectable on mtDNA. The structural organization of the A. nidulans mt L-rRNA gene corresponds to that of yeast omega + strains: both genes are interrupted by a large intron sequence (1678 and 1143 bp, respectively) and by another smaller insert (91 and 66 bp) at homologous positions within domain V. An evolutionary tree derived from conserved L-rRNA gene sequences of yeast nuclei, E. coli, maize chloroplasts and six mitochondrial species exhibits a common root of organelle and bacterial sequences separating early from the nuclear branch.

General primer-mediated PCR for detection of Aspergillus species.

A PCR assay was developed for the diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis in immunocompromised patients. For this purpose, the complete nucleotide sequences of the genes encoding the 18S rRNA of Aspergillus nidulans, Aspergillus terreus, Aspergillus niger, and Aspergillus flavus were elucidated and aligned to the sequences of Aspergillus fumigatus and other clinically relevant prokaryotic and eukar...

Restriction endonuclease cleavage map of mitochondrial DNA from Aspergillus nidulans.

Mitochondrial DNA of the ascomycete fungus Aspergillus nidulans, a circular molecule of 31 500 base pairs, is cleaved by restriction endonucleases Eco R I, Hind II, Hind III and Bgl II into 3, 7, 9 and 5 fragments, respectively. The relative positions of the cleavage sites could be mapped by analysis of fragments obtained by double enzyme digestions of whole DNA and by complete and partial redi...

Population structure of sea cucumber Holothuria parva by 16S rRNA mitochondrial in the costs of Bushehrand Halileh from Persian Gulf

Population structure of sea cucumber Holothuria parva in the coasts of Bushehr and Halileh from Persian Gulf was determined by 16S rRNA of mitochondrial genome sequencing in autumn and winter seasons of 2019. In Bushehr and Halileh populations, 2 and 4 haplotypes were identified out of 374 nucleotide sites, respectively, and haplotype 2 was the most abundant in Bushehr population and was observ...

Comparative Phylogenetic Perspectives on the Evolutionary Relationships in the Brine Shrimp Artemia Leach, 1819 (Crustacea: Anostraca) Based on Secondary Structure of ITS1 Gene

This is the first study on phylogenetic relationships in the genus Artemia Leach, 1819 using the pattern and sequence of secondary structures of internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1). Significant intraspecific variation in the secondary structure of ITS1 rRNA was found in Artemia tibetiana. In the phylogenetic tree based on joined primary and secondary structure sequences, Artemia urmiana and pa...

Precursor of 5S ribosomal ribonucleic acid in the blue-green alga Anacystis nidulans.

The maturation of 5S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) in the obligately photoautotrophic unicellular blue-green alga Anacystis nidulans has been studied by using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and T1 ribonuclease oligonucleotide analysis. A. nidulans mature 5S rRNA (m5) is of approximately the same molecular weight as the 5S rRNA of Escherichia coli, and is derived by cleavage of a precurs...
