The complete nucleotide sequence of a gene cluster encoding the NusG and the L 11-L1-L10-L12 ribosomal proteins from the thermophilic crenarchaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus has been determined. The genes are arranged in the same order as the equivalent genes in the rif region of Escherichia coli. The ribosomal proteins exhibit between 66% (L10) and 80% (L12) identity with their respective equivalents from Sulfolobus acidocaldarius. The short distance (5 nucleotides) between the nusG stop codon and the L11 start codon suggests that nusG and the genes for the ribosomal proteins are transcribed as a single unit.
已确定嗜热泉古菌嗜酸热硫化叶菌中编码NusG以及L11-L1-L10-L12核糖体蛋白的基因簇的完整核苷酸序列。这些基因的排列顺序与大肠杆菌rif区域中的等效基因相同。核糖体蛋白与其来自嗜酸硫化叶菌的各自对应蛋白具有66%（L10）至80%（L12）的同一性。nusG终止密码子与L11起始密码子之间的短距离（5个核苷酸）表明，nusG和核糖体蛋白的基因作为一个单一单元进行转录。
