Abstract

The complete nucleotide (nt) sequence of the small subunit ribosomal RNA-encoding gene of Opisthorchis viverrini reported in this study is the first nt sequence reported for a trematode. The gene is 1992 nt long and has a G + C content of 50.94%. It is made up of alternated constant and variable regions that are similar to the gene organization of other eukaryotes. It is also of interest to note an unexpectedly high degree of sequence homology between O. viverrini and human genes.
