Genes for elongation factor EF-1 alpha in the brine shrimp Artemia
FEBS Letters
|July 4, 1983
Abstract:
A plasmid carrying a cDNA sequence coding for elongation factor EF-1 alpha from Artemia was used to probe blots of mRNA and chromosomal DNA from Artemia. A messenger length for EF-1 alpha corresponding to 1850 nucleotides was found. Southern blots pointed to a limited number (1-4) of genes, coding for EF-1 alpha. From an Artemia gene library a recombinant phage was isolated, which contains genomic sequences of EF-1 alpha. S1-nuclease mapping indicated the presence of intervening sequences within this cloned gene.
