Abstract

The DNA sequences of eight yeast ribosomal protein genes have been compared for the purpose of identifying homologous regions which may be involved in the coordinate regulation of ribosomal protein synthesis. A 12 bp homology was identified in the 5' DNA sequence preceding the structural gene for 6 out of 8 yeast ribosomal protein genes. In each case the homologous sequence was found at a position approximately 300 bp preceding the transcription start of the ribosomal protein gene. This homology was not identified in any non-ribosomal protein gene examined. Additional homologies between ribosomal protein genes were identified in the transcribed regions, including the untranslated 5' and 3' DNA regions flanking the coding regions.
