Summary
A precise localization of thetsm-8 mutation in relation to the transfer RNA genes has been attempted by rho- deletion analysis. The data show that thetsm-8 mutation is in close proximity to the isoleucyl transfer RNA gene. However, it is not yet possible to decide whether thetsm-8 mutation is within this transfer RNA gene.
