The nucleotide sequence of a rat 18 S ribosomal ribonucleic acid gene and a proposal for the secondary structure of 18 S ribosomal ribonucleic acid.
Open accessAbstract
The nucleotide sequence of a rat 18 S rRNA gene was determined. The 18 S rRNA encoded in the gene contains 1874 nucleotides, and the molecular weight estimated from the sequence is 6.09 X 10(5). The sequences of rat and Xenopus laevis 18 S rRNAs are very similar; the only differences of consequence are the insertions between nucleotides 197 and 206 and between 258 and 279 of the rat nucleic acid of sequences rich in guanine and cytosine. A proposal is presented for the secondary structure of rat 18 S rRNA based on a comparison with the sequences of 17 other small ribosomal subunit RNAs. While the primary sequences of rat and eubacterial RNAs are different, the deduced secondary structures are remarkably similar.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
