Abstract

During an investigation of amoeba rDNA sequences, a group I intron was identified in the 18S rDNA of Thecamoeba aesculea (Amoebozoa; Discosea) at position S956. Secondary structure of Thecamoeba intron and phylogenetic analysis suggest that it is affiliated with other S956 introns occurring in distantly related amoebae such as acrasid (Percolozoa; Heterolobosea) and myxogastrid (Amoebozoa; Mycetozoa) slime moulds. This is the first report of a nuclear intron occurring within the genus Thecamoeba.
