Secondary structure models of the nuclear internal transcribed spacer regions and 5.8S rRNA in Calciodinelloideae (Peridiniaceae) and other dinoflagellates.

Abstract excerpt

Secondary structure models of the 5.8S rRNA and both internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS2) are proposed for Calciodinelloideae (Peridiniaceae) and are also plausible for other dinoflagellates. The secondary structure of the 5.8S rRNA corresponds to previously developed models, with two internal paired regions and at least one 5.8S rRNA-28S rRNA interaction. A general secondary structure model of ITS1 for...
