The nucleotide sequence of a wheat nuclear tRNA(UGASer) gene from Triticum vulgare var. Aria has been determined. It has a typical intragenic promoter with boxA and boxB elements and a putative termination signal 12 nucleotides downstream from the last tRNA-coding nucleotide. The region upstream from the coding segment contains a G + C-rich sequence with a symmetrical element. The sequence described is the first nuclear tRNA gene from a monocotyledonous plant.
