Summary In order to determine the localization of ribosomal protein genes on the chloroplast genome of Spirodela, we have followed two different approaches: First, antisera were prepared against purified 30S, 50S and 70S chloroplast ribosomal proteins from Spinacia. These antisera react with about two third of the chloroplast ribosomal proteins as shown by protein blot and immunoprecipitation experiments. Recombinant plasmids carrying the Spirodela BamHI-G or PstI-I cpDNA fragment both direct the synthesis of a 15 kD chloroplast ribosomal protein in a DNA dependent E. coli cell free system. This was confirmed by molecular weight determination, immunoprecipitation and competition immunoprecipitation experiments. Second, heterologous hybridization with the rps19 gene probe from Nicotiana revealed the localization of this gene on the chloroplast DNA of Spirodela within the BamHI-G fragment at the left junction of the large single copy region and the inverted repeat. Furthermore we show that the recombinant plasmid carrying Nicotiana rps19 also directs the synthesis of another chloroplast ribosomal protein in an E. coli cell free system. The identity of this protein is discussed.
