Abstract
Two lambda phage clones carrying contiguous human nuclear DNA sequences with extensive homology to non-contiguous human mitochondrial 16S ribosomal RNA sequences were isolated from a human gene library. The one clone carried mitochondrial-DNA(mtDNA)-like sequences flanked with two kinds of repetitive nuclear DNA sequences and the other carried mtDNA-like sequences, between unique nuclear DNA sequences and repetitive DNA sequences of Alu-family. These results demonstrate that mtDNA-like sequences are present in human nuclear DNA.Entities:
