Summary
The cytoplasmic and chloroplast tRNAs of Euglena gracilis Z strain were fractionated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and identified by aminoacylation. Purified chloroplast tRNAs, labeled in vitro with |32P|, were hybridized to endonuclease restriction fragments of chloroplast DNA, allowing the corresponding tRNA genes to be localized on the physical map of Euglena chloroplast DNA.
