Sequences of halobacterial tRNAs and the paucity of U in the first position of their anticodons (1983)

Gu, Xiang-Rong, Nicoghosian, K., Cedergren, R.J., Wong, J.Tze-Fei

The sequence of three tRNAs from Halobacterium cutirubrum have been determined. The sequences of tRNAGACVal and tRNAGACVal differ by only one nucleotide which is in the 5' terminal anticodon...

The isolation and measurement of tRNAimet using RNA/DNA hybridization (1983)

Meiman, L., Heron, T., Essagian, C., Nicoghosian, K., Cedergren, R.J.

A pBR322 plasmid containing the initiator tRNAmet gene of Xenopus (ptl45 -donated by Stuart Clarkson) will specifically bind to mouse initiator tRNAmet (tRNAmet) when total mouse tRNA, extracted from...

5S RNA sequence from the Philosamia silkworm: evidence for variable evolutionary rates in insect 5S RNA (1982)

Xian-Rong, Gu, Nicoghosian, Krikor, Cedergren, R.J.

The primary structure of 5S RNA isolated from the posterior silkgland of Philosamia cynthia. ricini. was determined using three in vitro labelling techniques. The derived sequence consists of 119...

A strategy for sequence phylogeny research (1982)

Sankoff, David, Cedergren, R.J., McKay, W.

Minimal mutation trees, and almost minimal trees, are constructed from two data sets, one of phenylalanine tRNA sequences, and the other of 5S RNA sequences, from a diverse range of organisms. The...

An algorithm for the display of nucleic acid secondary structure (1982)

Lapalme, G., Cedergren, R.J., Sankoff, D.

A simple algorithm is presented for the graphic display of nucleic acid secondary structure. Examples of secondary structure displays are given for tRNA, 5s RNA and part of the 16s RNA. Due to its...

Glutamine synthetase of Klebsiella aerogenes: properties of glnD mutants lacking uridylyltransferase.

Foor, F, Cedergren, R J, Streicher, S L, Rhee, S G, Magasanik, B

The glnD mutation of Klebsiella aerogenes is cotransducible by phage P1 with pan (requirement for pantothenate) and leads to a loss of uridylytransferase and uridylyl-removing enzyme, components of...

Total chemical synthesis of a 77-nucleotide-long RNA sequence having methionine-acceptance activity.

Ogilvie, K K, Usman, N, Nicoghosian, K, Cedergren, R J

Chemical synthesis is described of a 77-nucleotide-long RNA molecule that has the sequence of an Escherichia coli Ado-47-containing tRNA(fMet) species in which the modified nucleosides have been...

On the evolutionary descent of organisms and organelles: a global phylogeny based on a highly conserved structural core in small subunit ribosomal RNA.

Gray, M W, Sankoff, D, Cedergren, R J

To probe the earliest evolutionary events attending the origin of the five known genome types (archaebacterial, eubacterial, nuclear, mitochondrial and plastid), we have analyzed sequences...

The isolation and measurement of tRNAmeti using RNA/DNA hybridization.

Kleiman, L, Heron, T, Essagian, C, Nicoghosian, K, Cedergren, R J

A pBR322 plasmid containing the initiator tRNAmet gene of Xenopus (pt145 - donated by Stuart Clarkson) will specifically bind to mouse initiator tRNAmet (tRNAmeti) when total mouse tRNA, extracted...

Alterations in lysine transfer RNA during erythroid differentiation of the Friend cell.

Kleiman, L, Woodward-Jack, J, Cedergren, R J, Dion, R

The proportion of lysine tRNA represented by the isoacceptor species lysine tRNA4 has previously been shown to be largest in cells with the greatest ability to proliferate. Using reverse phase...

Convergence and minimal mutation criteria for evaluating early events in tRNA evolution.

Cedergren, R J, LaRue, B, Sankoff, D, Lapalme, G, Grosjean, H

The convergence of ancestral sequences independently constructed from different branches of a phylogenetic tree can be used as a test of homology of data sequences. This criterion has shown that all...
