vicinity of E. coli position 2350 (Gutell, unpublished results
and ref (3)) and when that evidence is favorable the interaction
is indicated on the f igures.
COMPARATIVE SEQUENCE ANALYSIS
For pragmatic reasons the primary tool used in constructing
the individual structures has been comparative (or phylogenetic)
analysis. This approach had its origin in the discovery of the
cloverleaf structure for tRNA (4). It first began to reach its
modern form with the analysis of 5S rRNA (5) and has emerged as
a well documented procedure (2,6-8) The underlying assumption is
that functionally equivalent regions of the large rRNAs from
phylogentically diverse sources will have biologically
equivalent structures. The procedure begins by aligning the
primary sequences using conserved sequence segments as a guide.
Next the various columns of bases are individually intercompared
to detect compensating base changes that maintain Watson-Crick
complementarity between the potential pairing regions. If an
individual helical element is independently tested several times
it is considered phylogenetically proven.
The comparative method has certain limitations that the
reader should appreciate in perusing the figures presented here.
First and foremost is the need for sequences that exhibit the
structure being studied. For highly conserved features this may
be the entire data base. In other cases features may be
extremely variable so that particular versions are only found in
individual phylogenetic groups, mammamalian mitochondria for
example. Secondly the feature must exhibit sequence variation
within the subset of sequences that contain the feature. Without
such variation a region can not be structured. Thirdly it should
be recognized that the approach necessarily produces minimal
structures. It is the nature of the method to allow the
identification of additional features as the data base grows.
Thus, for example, the continuing refinement of the E. coli
structure discussed above. Finally it should be appreciated that
it is very difficult to assess the significance of base pairs
that that can extend a particular helix in some organisms but
not all. Such base pairs are strongly supported by thermodynamic
arguements but conflict with the comparative concept. The proper
resolution in such circumstances may have to wait until such
time that more high resolution structure data is available.
CURRENT DATA BASE
As of late in 1987 there were 40 distinct complete large
subunit RNA sequences published and at least five extensive
partial sequences in which at least 500 bases of the large
subunit RNA have been sequenced (We have not exhaustively
searched for these). In addition in some instances sequence
information is available from more than one large subunit RNA
gene from the same organism. Multiple rRNA genes frequently
exhibit heterogeneity in sequence and this phenomenona may be of
more than academic interest. The present collection does not
address this matter however and in those few instances where
information from more than one large subunit rRNA gene is
available we have arbitrarily picked one sequence for inclusion
r176

here. The 40 known sequences provide a diverse sample covering
the three major urkingdoms; eubacteria, archaebacteria and
eukaryotes as well as the organelles. Table 1 lists the
sequences, the common name of the RNAs involved, the total
length of the large subunit RNA inclusive of fragments such as
5.8S and 4.5S rRNAs, at least one relevant GENBANK/EMBL
accession numbers if the sequence is in the data bases, a highly
abbreviated reference and a key to the complete references that
accompany this text.
HOW TO READ THE DIAGRAMS
The structure diagrams were drawn to a single scale so that
they may be readily superimposed or intercompared. This was
accomplished by a computer program described elsewhere (6). Each
diagram encompasses two pages with a crossover point to the next
page indicated. In most bacterial cases a possible helical
structure exists between the 5'and 3' termini of the molecule.
It is uncertain whether this helix is present in the functional
RNA or is simply a remnant of processing. In any event the
reader needs to be aware that when it is possibly present it
appears on both halves of the figure. Extensive base numbering
occurs on the E. coli diagram. On the other sequence diagrams
only occasional numbers are included. These occasional numbers
refer to the specific sequence on which they appear. In those
cases in which more than one molecule is include (eg 5.8S and
28S RNAs) each is numbered separately.
When a region contains no known structure it is drawn by
the computer program as a circular loop. In order to maintain
the scale and layout of the drawings it is not always possible
to draw large uncharacterized regions as unstructured loops.
When this occurs the region of unknown structure is included as
a detached linear array listed from 5' to 3'. The Homo sapiens
and other eukaryotic cytoplasmic sequences contain many examples
of this, though the same phenomenon will also be seen on
mitochondrial and chloroplast diagrams. These linear arrays are
labeled with a bold letter and the positions included in the
array indicated. A second bold letter specifies where in the
sequence the linear array belongs. These bold letters are used
in a consistent fashion so that a large unstructured area at the
same location in several diagrams always receives the same bold
letter. In a few instances the uncharacterized array is small
enough to be shown as a loop in some but not all the diagrams.
In those instances a bold letter is used to label the loops so
that it is obvious that an equivalent unstructured region is
present.
The reader should not conclude that the regions assigned
bold letters are the only unstructured regions. Whenever room
exists the computer program draws the unstructured regions as a
large loop. A letter has only been assigned if the computer has
used the linear array display in at least one case. Many of the
unlabeled unstructured regions are rather large. Obvious
examples can be seen by examining any of the mammalian
mitochondria structures. Thus in many of the sequences presented
here local regions which are often substantial in size are shown
as unstructured. These regions clearly have a different
r177
5. Nucleic Acids Research
structure than is seen in E. coli or some of the other molecules
but we do not as yet know what it is.
This should not be seen as bothersome but rather as
defining an opportunity to obtain data from additional organisms
in order to allow resolution of the problem area. In many cases
the difficulty stems from the fact that too few sequences are
available or too little sequence variation has been displayed in
the known sequences to deduce a structure. In a few cases time
did not permit a though analysis and a recognizeable structulral
feature may have been overlooked. Also the reader should realize
that the comparative approach is a convergent one. The current
model should at best be perceived as a minimal one awaiting the
discovery of additional interactions. Thus small two and three
base helices may ultimately be found even in regions in which
considerable structure has already been identified as more data
accumulates.
5.8S RNA, 4.5S RNA AND OTHER LARGE SUBUNIT FRAGMENTS
It is one of the pecularities of the large subunit RNA that
it is sometimes genetically fragmented. The most well known
example is the 5.8S rRNA and its equivalents that are found in
most eukaryotic o.ganisms. This RNA has been shown (9,10) to be
homologous to approximately the first 150 positions of the E.
coli 23S rRNA. Although genetically distinct it interacts with
the large subunit RNA through base pairing. In effect then the
two together form a single RNA with a backbone nick in one of
its loops. The same phenomenon is also seen at the 3' end of
several chloroplast large subunit RNAs where the last 100 or so
bases are separately encoded as a 4.5S RNA (11). In this case
the homology to the E. coli 3' terminus is obvious but the the
mechanism by which the 4.5S rRNA and the main large subunit RNA
component are held together is not. The most extreme case of
this fragmentation phenomenon that is known is in Crithidia
fasciculata where the large subunit RNA is actually assembled
from six f-ragments plus a 5.8S rRNA (12). These various
fragmentation phenomenon are indicated on the diagram by labels
that indicate where the respective 5' and 3' ends are located.
The Crithidia fragments are labeled with the same lower case
letters that were used in the original publication (12) and
numbered as if they were a single large RNA.
OVERLAY DIAGRAMS AND COLLECTION ARRANGEMENT
It is very useful in comparing structures to produce
overlay diagrams that display one structure relative to another.
Several such diagrams are included here. In each case the
underlying structure is that of E. coli. Where the E. coli is
unique it can be seen as a light gray. The bold structure is
that of the other organism indicated in the legend. Base numbers
on these diagrams always refer to E. coli. These overlay figures
show immediately where the sites of structural variation between
the two RNAs are located. The overlay figures are used to
introduce the various sections of the collection. In each case a
particularly representative overlay is chosen so that the major
variations in the group relative to E. coli can be seen.
The collection begins with the five eubacterial sequences.
r179
6. Nucleic Acids Research
These are virtually identical structurally and therefore no
overlay figure is included. They are followed by the four
chloroplast figures which again follow the virtually identical
structural pattern. The Anacystis sequence used was arbitrarily
that of Douglas and Doolittle (13). The plant chloroplasts all
have a detached 4.5S at the 3' terminus but the alga, Chlorella
ellipsoidea does not. The C. ellipsoidea sequence also is unusal
in that it is claimed to contain an intron (14). We believe that
this assertion is not convincingly established and thus the
putative intron is shown on Figure 9a as an insertion region of
class D. Several large subunit sequences have an insertion at
this location. If the C. ellipsoidea insertion is in fact an
intron this would be very atypical as none of the known large
subunit introns correspond with common insertion regions. It is
possibile that experimental difficulties may have arisen due to
the propensity of large subunit RNAs such as E. coli 23S rRNA
(15) to readily fragment. The location of this fragmentation
site has been localized in E. coli (1) to the region of the RNA
that corresponds to that which contains the putative intron in
C. ellipsoidea.
The largest portion of the collection contains the
mitochondrial sequences. These are assembled into three groups
each prefaced by a separate overlay figure. The first and most
internally variable gLoup are those with large mitochondrial
RNAs as typified by the overlay of Zea mays, Fig. 10. These
mitochondrial RNAs resemble the eubacterial ones in size and
structure more than any of the other mitochondria do.
Nevertheless they are marked by considerable varibility even
within the group. One unifying feature is the presence of an
unstructured region H in the vicinity of E. coli position 1400
in all cases. Structures are provided for all of these RNAs
except Paramecium tetraaurelia which is virtually identical to
P. primaurelia, Fig. 15. and Schizosaccharomyces pombe which was
published after the structures were completed. The second major
mitochondrial group are the rather small 16S RNAs that are found
in most higher organisms. Although much smaller, as the human
overlay shows, Fig. 16, considerable structural similarity with
the eubacterial RNAs continues to exist. Finally the three
kinetoplast mitochondrial 12S rRNAs follow. Here as is indicated
by the overlay, Fig. 24, virtually none of the structure in the
5' half of the molecule is preserved, though considerable
structural conservation does exist in the 3' half of the
molecule.
The remaining figures are devoted to the archaebacteria and
eucaryotic cytoplasm. As indicated by the Halococcus morrhuae
structural overlay, Fig. 28, the archaebacteria exhibit
significant variation that exceeds anything that is seen among
the eubacteria alone. Close examination of the archaebacterial
figures also reveals that unlike the eubacteria, the
archaebacteria, do exhibit some variation within the group as a
whole. A figure is not included for Thermoproteus tenax because
this sequence was inadvertantly overlooked. The main theme from
the eucaryotic cytoplasmic sequences sems to be growth in size.
Although not all the RNAs exhibit the effect to the same extent
it is clear that several regions seem to be favored for
macroscopic insertions of new material. As indicated by the
Saccharomyces cerevisiae overlay, Fig. 34, the main theme of
rl 80
7. Nucleic Acids Research
secondary structure is again repeated in the eukaryotic
cytoplasmic RNAs. Excluding the large insertions, the eukaryotic
RNA structure is remarkably like that of the eubacteria and
archaebacteria. The sequence of S. carlsbergenesis 26S rRNA is
very similar to that of S. cerevislae and thus is not shown as a
separate figure. In the case of rat, the corrected sequence (16)
has been chosen for the figure presented here.
AVAILABILITY AND ACCURACY OF THE DATA
The sequences presented here are maintained in aligned data
bases according to phylogenetic type. Due to the numerous
macroscopic insertions and deletions no attempt is made to
maintain a single aligned data base of all the sequences. We
therefore cannot provide such an alignment on electronic medium.
We can however provide individual sequences. Alternatively the
interested reader may get sequences directly from the electronic
databases. When base ambiguity existed the IUPAC nomenclature
recommendations were followed. Post-transcriptional
modifications have not been indicated since these have not been
determined in most cases. The reader should be aware however
that the large rRNAs do have a number of such modified
nucleotides. In the case of the 5.8S rRNAs which mostly have
been sequenced at the RNA level the post-transcriptional
modifications are frequently known, though not indicated here.
The sequences presented here and the position number labels have
been extensively checked but nevertheless may contain an
occasional error. The structures themselves are the best we
currently have available. Although occasionally a helix
indicated may be in error it is far more likely that one will
have been overlooked. Readers are invited to inform us about
errors and ommissions of published sequences.
