High impact information on RpS18

  • Sequences encoding r proteins S18 and L12 were found to be present in the genome in single copies [1].
  • Three clones containing the genes for r proteins 7/8, S18, and L12 were positively identified by electrophoresis of the translation products in one-dimensional and two-dimensional polyacrylamide gels [1].
  • Using primers within coding regions of PCNA and RpS18, we amplified and sequenced the intervening region from twelve Drosophila species [2].
  • The D. melanogaster rpS18 gene is single copy and maps at 56F, a chromosome region encompassing a previously characterised Minute locus, M(2)56F [3].
