Gene dosage for 5S ribosomal ribonucleic acid in Escherichia coli ad Bacillus megaterium
Abstract
The number of gene copies for 5S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA), relative to that for 16 and 23S rRNA, has been determined by deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-RNA hybridization for Escherichia coli and Bacillus megaterium. In both cases, the number of 5S rRNA genes equals the number of 16 or 23S rRNA genes. Rapid procedures for preparing extremely highly purified DNA suitable for DNA-RNA hybridization experiments and chemically pure 5S rRNA are described.
