High impact information on rps3

The rps3 and rpl16 frames overlap by 131 bp [1].
Inverted repeat sequences are found in the upstream flanking region of rpl23 and downstream from rps3 [2].

Biological context of rps3

The introns found in rpl23 (106, 99 and 103 bp), rps19 (103 and 97 bp) and rps3 intron 2 (102 bp) appear to represent either a new class of chloroplast intron found only in constitutively expressed genes, or possibly a degenerate version of Euglena chloroplast group II introns [2].
