Abstract
A Drosophila genomic DNA library in the vector Charon 4 was screened using cDNA derived from the small (6S-12S) poly(A)+ mRNA of 2-6-h-old Drosophila embryos. This fraction of mRNA is enriched for ribosomal protein-coding sequences. The selected recombinants were hybridized to total mRNA under conditions which allowed for isolation of homologous mRNAs. The mRNA from these RNA/DNA hybrids was eluted and translated in vitro. The translation products were analyzed by one- and two-dimensional electrophoresis with authentic ribosomal proteins as standards. One cloned DNA segment was found to contain a ribosomal protein gene, and a sequence which hybridizes strongly to at least 5 other ribosomal protein mRNAs.Entities:
