Diversity of tRNA genes in eukaryotes.

Nucleic acids research - 1 Jan 2006

Goodenbour Jeffrey M, Pan Tao

Abstract excerpt

We compare the diversity of chromosomal-encoded transfer RNA (tRNA) genes from 11 eukaryotes as identified by tRNAScan-SE of their respective genomes. They include the budding and fission yeast, worm, fruit fly, fugu, chicken, dog, rat, mouse, chimp and human. The number of tRNA genes are between 170 and 570 and the number of tRNA isoacceptors range from 41 to 55. Unexpectedly, the number of tRNA genes having the...
