Abstract |
Surprisingly little is known about the organization and distribution of tRNA genes and tRNA-related sequences on a genome-wide scale. While tRNA gene complements are usually reported in passing as part of genome annotation efforts, and peculiar features such as the tandem arrangements of tRNA gene in Entamoeba histolytica have been described in some detail, systematic comparative studies are rare and mostly restricted to bacteria. We therefore set out to survey the genomic arrangement of tRNA genes and pseudogenes in a wide range of eukaryotes to identify common patterns and taxon-specific peculiarities. |
