Alignment of the 5' upstream sequence of the mitochondrial tRNA Lys Cheng et al. Mung bean mitochondrial lysyl-tRNA gene Figure 2. Alignment of the 5' upstream sequence of the mung bean mitochondrial tRNA Lys gene with the mitochondrial tRNA Lys genes of other species. The conserved pyrimidine-rich region is shaded. Numbers refer to nucleotides, starting with -1 at the first nucleotide just 5' from the coding region.
Dashes represent gaps introduced for alignment of the respective sequence.
Alignment of the 3' downstream sequence of the mung bean mitochondrial tRNA Lys gene with mitochondrial tRNA Lys genes of other species. The conserved region among 3 dicots is shaded. Numbers refer to nucleotides, starting with 74 at the first nucleotide just 3' from the coding region. Dashes represent gaps introduced for alignment of the respective sequence. We are grateful to Dr. K.-S. Chiang for his advice on mitochondrial DNA preparation.
