The complete nucleotide sequence of the 25 S rRNA gene from one rDNA repeating unit of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been determined. The corresponding 25 S rRNA molecule contains 3392 nucleotides and has an estimated relative molecular mass (Mr, Na-salt) or 1.17 x 10(6). Striking sequence homology is observed with known 5'- and 3'-end terminal segments of L-rRNA from other eukaryotes. Possible models of interaction with 5.8 S rRNA are discussed.
