Uracil content of 16S rRNA of thermophilic and psychrophilic prokaryotes correlates inversely with their optimal growth temperatures

We report here the finding of a highly significant inverse correlation of the uracil content of 16S rRNA and the optimum growth temperature (T(opt)) of cultured thermophilic and psychrophilic prokaryotes. This correlation was significantly different from the weaker correlations between the contents...
