Complete sequence of the closed circular extrachromosomal element of Naegleria pringsheimi De Jonckheere (strain Singh).

The DNA encoding the ribosomal RNA in Naegleria is encoded on closed circular extrachromosomal ribosomal DNA-containing elements (CERE) in the nucleolus. In this report, we describe the sequence of the CERE of Naegleria pringsheimi De Jonckheere (strain Singh).

Complete sequence of the closed circular extrachromosomal element (CERE) of Naegleria australiensis De Jonckheere (strain PP 397).

Ribosomal RNA is not encoded in chromosomal DNA in amoebae of the Naegleria genus but the rRNA genes are located on closed circular extrachromosomal ribosomal DNA (rDNA)-containing elements (CERE). In this report, we describe the sequence of the CERE of Naegleria australiensis De Jonckheere (strain PP397).
