Abstract

Oligonucleotide fingerprinting shows the precursor form of the 23S ribosomal RNA fromBacillus megaterium to be larger than its mature counterpart, by some 8 percent, or approximately 250 nucleotides. It can further be shown that the 23SrRNA precursor doesnot contain the 5SrRNA sequence, as had been previously suggested.
