Received January 20, 1981. Three small RNAs of the cytoplasmic 80S ribosomes of the green unicellular alga Chlamydomonas reinhardii have been sequenced. They include two species of ribosomal 5S RNA, a major and a minor one of 122 and 121 nucleotides respectively, which differ from each other by 17 bases, and also the ribosomal 5.8S RNA of 156 nucleotides. Novel structural features can be recognized in the 5S RNAs of C. reinhardii by a comparison with published 5S RNA sequences. In addition the secondary structure of these small RNA molecules has been examined using a newly developed method based on differential nuclease susceptibility.
