S. Patel et B. Austen, SEQUENCE OF THE HIGHLY CONSERVED GENE ENCODING THE HUMAN 54KDA SUBUNIT OF SIGNAL RECOGNITION PARTICLE, DNA sequence, 6(3), 1996, pp. 167-170
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
