摘要：

A major feature of the plastid-like circular DNA of Plasmodium falciparum is an inverted repeat comprising duplicated genes for rRNA (rrn) and tRNA (trn). We have identified nine putative trn genes in each arm of the repeat on the basis of their potential clover-leaf structures and conserved residues. Northern blots indicate that these trn genes are expressed.
