The genes for 22 tRNA species from Acholeplasma laidawii, belonging to the class Mollicutes (Mycoplasmas), have been cloned and sequenced. Sixteen genes are organized in 3 clusters consisting of eleven, three and two tRNA genes, respectively, and the other 6 genes exist as a single gene. The arrangement of tRNA genes in the 11-gene, the 3-gene and the 2-gene clusters reveals extensive similarity to several parts of the 21-tRNA or 16-tRNA gene cluster in Bacillus subtilis. The 11-gene cluster is ...[more]
