cytosolic_2S_rRNA
Cytosolic 2S rRNA is a 30 nucleotide RNA component of the large subunit of cytosolic ribosomes in Drosophila and at least some other Diptera. It is homologous to the 3' part of other 5.8S rRNA molecules. The 3' end of the 5.8S molecule is able to base-pair with the 5' end of the 2S rRNA to generate a helical region equivalent in position to the 'GC-rich hairpin' found in all previously sequenced 5.8S molecules.
