Extensive corrections of the nucleotide sequence of theXenopuslaevismitochondrial small ribosomal subunit RNA gene [Roe et al. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 9759‐9774] are reported. We found an additional fragment of 142 nucleotides and describe 25 nucleotide differences scattered in the gene. The nucleotide sequence of theX. laevismitochondrial 12 S rRNA gene presents 80% homology with that of the same gene of bovine mitochondrion. We propose a new secondary structure for the product of theX. laevisgene. Contrary to the finding of Roe et al., we observed the same general organization of stems and loops as for the human mitochondrial 12 S rRNA gene product. On the other hand, the structural homology observed between the mitochondrial and cytoplasmic small subunit rRNAs ofX. laevisappears much lower. These results strongly suggest that animal vertebrate mitochondrial DNAs have followed the same evolutionary pathway.
