Linkage of 5S RNA and 16S+23S RNA genes on the E. coli chromosome

Mol Gen Genet. 1977 Jun 24;153(3):337-41. doi: 10.1007/BF00431599.

Abstract

Episomes carrying limited regions of the chromosome where 5S RNA genes have previously been located are described. The DNA purified from each of these episomes contains one gene per molecule for each of the three ribosomal RNA species as shown by hybridization experiments.
