Abstract
The large T1 ribonuclease fragments of 18S ribosomal RNA from four mammalian species, rat, mouse, hamster and man, were compared by two-dimensional homochromatography fingerprinting. The nucleotide sequences of the large T1 ribonuclease fragments, polypyrimidines and polypurines which were different among the four mammalian species were determined and compared. The method used for determining nucleotide sequences utilizes 32p-labeling of oligonucleotides at their 5'-termini by polynucleotide kinase, partial digestion by ribonucleases and analysis of labeled spots by homochromatography-fingerprinting. Several examples of point mutations were detected. It was of interest that the 18S rRNA of Chinese hamster has more oligonucleotide sequences in common with those of man that rat or mouse.
