ABSTRACT We determined the nucleotide sequence of a 4.6-kb Eco RI fragment containing 70% of the rosy locus. In combination with information on the 5′ sequence, the gene has been sequenced in entirety. rosy cDNAs have been isolated and intron/exon boundaries have been determined. We find an open reading frame which spans four exons and would encode a protein of 1335 amino acids. The molecular weight of the encoded protein (xanthine dehydrogenase), based on the amino acid translation, is 146,898 daltons which agrees well with earlier biophysical estimates. Characteristics of the protein are discussed.

We have analyzed nucleotide sequence variation at the Glucose dehydrogenase (Gld) locus from four populations of Drosophila melanogaster from four continents. All four population samples show a significant reduction in silent variation compared to the neutral expectation. The levels of silent variation across all four populations are consistent with the predictions of the background selection model; however, Zimbabwe has a remarkably low level of variation. In the face of dramatically reduced silent polymorphism, an amino acid variant, leading to the common allozyme polymorphism at Gld, remains in low to intermediate frequency in all non-African samples. In the Chinese population sample, the ratio of replacement to silent variation is significantly elevated compared to the neutral expectation. The difference in patterns of variation across these population samples suggests that selection on Gld (or the Gld region) has been different in the Chinese population than in the other three.

The nucleotide sequences of two valine tRNA's of Drosophila melanogaster are the following: tRNA[Formula: see text], pGGUUmCCAUAGUGψAGCGGDU*AUCACG(m2G)ψCUGCψUU*ACACGCAGAAGm7GDC(m5C)UCCGGTψCGm1AUCCCGGAUGGAACCACCA; [Formula: see text], pGUUUCCGUAGUGψAGCGGDacp3UAUCACGψGUGCUUCACACGCACAAGm7GDC(m5C)CCCGGTψCGm1AACCCGGGCGGGAACACCA. [Formula: see text] shows greater similarity to prokaryotic and eukaryotic organelle tRNAVal,s than does [Formula: see text].
