Abstract
Uniformly 32P-labeled phage-specific tRNAGln has been isolated from bacteriophage T5-infected Escherichia coli cells and its nucleotide sequence has been determined using thin-layer chromatography on cellulose to fractionate the oligonucleotides. The sequence is: pUGGGGAUUAGCUUAGCUUGGCCUAAAGCUUCGGCCUUUGAAG psi CGAGAUCAUUGGT psi CAAAUCCAAUAUCCCCUGCCAOH. The main feature of this tRNA is the absence of Watson-Crick pairing between the 5'-terminal base and the fifth base from its 3'-end. The structure of tRNA was confirmed by DNA sequencing of its gene.
