Received October 11, 1977. The nucleotide sequence of Formula isolated fron the posterior silk gland of Bombyx mor1 has been determined. This transfer RNA is present in high amounts in the posterior silk gland during the fifth larval instar. It has a GCC anticodon, capable of decoding a major glycin codon in the fibroin messenger RNA, GGU. Structural features of Bombyx Formula and its homology to other eukaryotic glycine tRNAs are discussed.
