Complete sequence and gene organization of the Nosema spodopterae rRNA gene.

By sequencing the entire ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene of Nosema spodopterae, we show here that its gene organization follows a pattern similar to the Nosema type species, Nosema bombycis, i.e. 5'-large subunit rRNA (2,497 bp)-internal transcribed spacer (185 bp)-small subunit rRNA (1,232 bp)-intergenic spacer (277 bp)-5S rRNA (114 bp)-3'.

The novel organization and complete sequence of the ribosomal RNA gene of Nosema bombycis.

We present here for the first time the complete DNA sequence data (4301bp) of the ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene of the microsporidian type species, Nosema bombycis. Sequences for the large subunit gene (LSUrRNA: 2497bp, GenBank Accession No. ), the internal transcribed spacer (ITS: 179bp, GenBank Accession No.

The characterization of microsporidian isolates (Nosematidae: Nosema) from five important lepidopteran pests in Taiwan.

Microsporidian isolates from five lepidopteran pests-Spodoptera litura, Spodoptera exigua, Helicoverpa armigera, Plutella xylostella, and Pieris spp.-were compared by spore morphology, infectivity to S. litura, Western-blot banding patterns, the sequences of small subunit rRNA gene (SSUrRNA sequence), and random amplified polymorphic DNA polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR).

Simultaneous determination of oxidative hair dye p-phenylenediamine and its metabolites in human and rabbit biological fluids.

A liquid chromatography with an electrochemical detector method has been developed for the quantitative measurement for three diamine derivatives (p-phenylenediamine, N,N(')-p-phenylenebisacetamide, and 4-aminoacetanilide) in human urine and rabbit blood, urine, and feces. The detection cell consisted of a glassy carbon electrochemical signal obtained with a supporting electrolyte containing 20% methanol-5mM octylammonium orthophosphate (pH 6.30) as the mobile phase.

Complete sequence and structure of ribosomal RNA gene of Heterosporis anguillarum.

The ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene region of the microsporidium Heterosporis anguillarum has been examined. Complete DNA sequence data (4060 bp, GenBank Accession No. AF402839) of the rRNA gene of H.
