Genomic heterogeneity in a natural archaeal population suggests a model of tRNA gene disruption.

Genomic heterogeneity in a natural archaeal population suggests a model of tRNA gene disruption.

Understanding the mechanistic basis of the disruption of tRNA genes, as manifested in the intron-containing and split tRNAs found in Archaea, will provide considerable insight into the evolution of the tRNA molecule. However, the evolutionary processes underlying these disruptions have not yet been...
