The nucleotide sequence of 5 S rRNA from gonads of an ascidian Holocynthia roretzi has been determined. The sequence is almost equally related to those of vertebrates and most of the multicellular animal groups. The secondary structure of this 5 S rRNA fits in with the general structural model for multicellular 5 S rRNA.
