Abstract

We detected 16 genes for ribosomal proteins in the complete sequence of the mitochondrial DNA from a liverwort, Marchantla polymorpha. The genes formed two major clusters, rps12-rps7 and rps10-rpl2-rps19-rps3-rpl16-rpl5-rps14-rps8-rpl6-rps13-rps11-rps1 , very similar in organization to Escherichia coli ribosomal protein operons ( str and S10- spc -α operons, respectively). In contrast, rps2 and rps4 genes were located separately in the liverwort mitochondriat genome (the latter was part of the α operon in E. coli ). Furthermore, several ribosomal proteins encoded by the liverwort mitochondrial genome differed substantially in size from their counterparts in E. coli and liverwort chloroplast.
