The nucleotide sequence of lysine tRNA2 from Drosophila.

The nucleotide sequence of Drosophila melanogaster lysine tRNA2 was determined to be: pG-C-C-C-G-G-C-U-A-m2G-C-U-C-A-G-D-C-G-G-D-A-G-A-G-C-A-psi-G-A-G-A-C-U-C-U-U-t6A-A-psi-C-U-C-A-G-G-m7G-D-C-G-U-G-G-G-Xm-U-C-G-m1A-G-C-C-C-C-A-C-G-U-U-G-G-G-C-G-C-C-A(OH). With minor differences in the state of modification of some nucleotides, the sequence is the same as that of lysine tRNA2b from rabbit liver.
