Abstract
Spinach, tobacco and Euglena chloroplast RNAs (cp RNA) can be successfully translated in the wheat germ cell-free system. The in vitro translation products obtained from spinach cp RNA in the wheat germ and in the Escherichia coli system are similar to each other and to that of in organello synthesis, if analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Translation of mixtures of chloroplast and total RNA of leaves reveals that under conditions of mRNA competition the cytoplasmic type of RNA is preferentially translated in the wheat germ system.
