Abstract

A cDNA encoding ribosomal (r) protein L18 of Arabidopsis thaliana (At) was isolated and characterized. The nucleotide sequence contains a 563-bp open reading frame that encodes a 20.9-kDa basic protein. Amino-acid comparison indicated that the predicted L18 r-protein of At has a high degree of homology with L18 of distantly related organisms such as yeast, Xenopus laevis and rat. Genomic DNA analysis suggested that L18 is encoded by a single locus in At. An mRNA of approx. 0.9 kb is detected in all the tissues and developmental stages analyzed.
