Isolation and Sequence of a tRNAGly (CCC) from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2)

  • Chapter
Genetics and Product Formation in Streptomyces

Summary

A tRNA species from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) was isolated and sequenced. The tRNA has a glycine specific anticodon CCC. The GC-content of the sequenced tRNA 55%, is much lower than the average of 74% GC for Streptomyces genomes, but similar to glycine tRNAs from other bacteria.
