High impact information on rrnL

In parallel, we have examined the nucleotide sequences in the corresponding part of the 23S ribosomal RNA [1].
A splicing deficiency was studied by transforming wild-type cells with rrnL genes containing point mutations in the intron core [2].
Group I introns interrupt the chloroplast psaB and psbC and the mitochondrial rrnL gene in Chlamydomonas [3].
To provide insights into the origin of these two types of intervening sequences, we have undertaken the sequencing of the chloroplast rrnL genes of 15 additional Chlamydomonas taxa and have characterized the mature large subunit rRNA species they encode in addition to those specified by the C. reinhardtii rrnL [4].
