The chloroplast genome contains genes for a large and probably complete set of tRNAs. These genes are unique in sharing attributes of both nuclear and bacterial tRNA genes. Two chloroplast tRNA genes from Zea mays are described here. tV-UAC, encoding a valine tRNA with the anticodon UAC, contains a 603 bp intron and is highly homologous, both in coding regions and in the intron, to the analogous gene from tobacco described by Deno et al. (Nucleic Acids Res 10:7511-7520, 1982). It is located near the gene for the beta and epsilon subunits of the CF1 complex. (Krebbers et al.: Nucleic Acids Res 10:4985-5002, 1982). The gene tS-UGA, encoding a serine tRNA with the anticodon UGA, is located 41 kbp 3' to tV-UAC. Both genes contain promoter-like sequences in their 5' flanking regions.
叶绿体基因组包含一个大型的、可能完整的 tRNA 基因集。这些基因在具有核和细菌 tRNA 基因的属性方面是独特的。本文描述了来自玉米的两个叶绿体 tRNA 基因。tV-UAC 编码具有 UAC 反密码子的缬氨酸 tRNA,包含一个 603bp 的内含子,在编码区和内含子中都与 Deno 等人描述的烟草类似基因高度同源(Nucleic Acids Res 10:7511-7520,1982)。它位于 CF1 复合物的β和ε亚基基因附近。(Krebbers 等人:Nucleic Acids Res 10:4985-5002,1982)。编码具有 UGA 反密码子的丝氨酸 tRNA 的基因 tS-UGA 位于 tV-UAC 的 3'端 41 kbp 处。这两个基因在其 5'侧翼区都含有启动子样序列。
