More ribosomal spacer sequences from Xenopus laevis.

???displayArticle.abstract???
The base sequence analysis of a Xenopus laevis ribosomal DNA repeat (7) has been extended to cover almost the entire non-transcribed and external transcribed spacer. A compilation of these sequences is presented. All the repetitive and non-repetitive sequence elements of the spacer are identified and their evolution discussed. Comparison of the X.laevis and S.cerevisiae (25,26) ribosomal DNAs shows about 80% sequence conservation in the 18S gene but no sequence conservation, from the available data, in the external transcribed spacer. The sequence coding for the 3' terminus of the X.laevis 40S ribosomal precursor RNA is presented and its structural features analyzed.
