Abstract
S. coelicolor A3(2) contains six ribosomal RNA operons. Here we describe the cloning of rrnA, rrnC and rrnE, thereby completing the cloning of all operons. Southern hybridisation of genomic DNA with a heterologous probe from the E.coli rrnB 16S rRNA gene showed differences in hybridisation among the six rRNA operon-containing bands. The nucleotide sequence of the 16S rRNA gene and the upstream region of rrnA was determined and compared with the corresponding sequence of rrnD, showing that the 16S rRNA genes are 99% identical. Substantial differences were found, however, in the upstream regions corresponding to the P1 and P2 promoters of rrnD. Southern analysis showed that some of the other rRNA operons of S.coelicolor A3(2) also differed in this part of the upstream region.Entities:
