Nucleotide sequence of a mosquito 18S ribosomal RNA gene.

Biochimica et biophysica acta - 23 Jul 1991

Baldridge G D, Fallon A M

Abstract excerpt

We have sequenced an 18S ribosomal RNA gene from the mosquito, Aedes albopictus. Computer alignment of the 1950 nucleotide coding region (56% A + T) with 18S rRNA sequences from two insect and three vertebrate species revealed greater sequence divergence among the insects than among the vertebrates. Sequence alignments showed that variable region V4, which has been considered to be the most poorly conserved...
