Sequence of a putative promoter region for the rRNA genes of tobacco chloroplast DNA.

The nucleotide sequence of the segment of tobacco chloroplast DNA adjacent to and including the start of the 16S rRNA gene has been determined. The region just preceding this gene was found to contain a tRNAVal gene and promoter-type sequences similar to those which occur in E. coli were found before this tRNA gene. E. coli RNA polymerase can recognize these sequences and in vitro co-transcribes the tRNA and rRNA genes

The distribution and properties of RNA primed initiation sites of DNA synthesis at the replication origin of Escherichia coli chromosome.

RNA-linked DNA molecules were obtained from E. coli dnaCts cells synchronously initiating a new round of chromosome replication. The deoxynucleotides at the transition from primer RNA to DNA were 32P-labeled, and their positions were located on the nucleotide sequence of 1.4 kb genomic region (position -906 to +493) including the oriC and its leftside flanking region. In the r-strand (the counterclockwise strand), many strong transition sites were mapped in the left half portion of the oriC and a few weak sites in the left outside region. In the 1-strand (the clockwise strand), no transition sites were found inside the oriC but many weak sites were found in the left outside region. The results support the initiation mechanism in which the first leading strand synthesis starts with the r-strand counterclockwise from the oriC that is followed by the 1-strand synthesis on the displaced template strand on the left of oriC. Primer RNA molecules attached to the strong r-strand transition sites were only a few residues in length. Properties of the transition sites were discussed
