Abstract
The complete sequence of the human gene encoding the 54kDa subunit of the signal recognition particle has been isolated from a cDNA library. Degenerate oligonucleotides based on the 5' and 3' coding region of t he canine gene and a mammalian codon usage table, were used to amplify the sequence using PCR. The nucleotide sequence of the human gene sho ws that the human sequence shares a 95.8% nucleotide sequence homology and 100% amino acid sequence homology to ifs canine counterpart The s equence has been given the accession number X86373 in the EMBL databas e.
