Summary:The lack of colinearity between nucleotide sequence of the lupin 5.8 S rDNA gene (Rafalski, A.J., Wiewiórowski, M. and Soll, D. (1983) FEBS Lett. 152, 241–246) and 5.8 S rRNA of other plants (Erdmann, V.A. and Wolters, J. (1986) Nucleic Acids Res. 14, r1–r59.) prompted us to clarify this point by sequencing the native lupin 5.8 S rRNA. The sequence analysis was carried out using enzymatic and chemical methods. Lupin seed 5.8 S rRNA contains 164 nucleotides, including four modified ones: two residues of 2′- O-methylguanosine, one pseudouridine and one 2′- O-methyladenosine. The nucleotide sequence homology with the other plant 5.8 S rRNAs is approx. 88–96%.
