Pabbaraju K, Sanderson K E
Abstract excerpt
Intervening sequences (IVSs) occur sporadically in the rrl (ribosomal RNA large) genes for 23S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) at helix-25 (base pair 550) and helix 45 (base pair 1170) in several bacterial genera, including Salmonella, Yersinia, Proteus, and Providencia, representing the Enterobacteriaceae, but are missing from other genera such as Escherichia. These sequences are transcribed, but later excised without...
