Balancing copy number in ribosomal DNA.

Ecologists recognize the balance of nature as a complex system that arises from interacting and connected parts; disturbing the balance can affect other species in nonlinear and dynamic ways. Like ecosystems, the cell and genome are extensively connected by an abundance of molecular interactions. Upsetting the molecular balance, through changes in gene regulation, abnormal copy number variants,...

DNA replication stress restricts ribosomal DNA copy number

Ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) in budding yeast are encoded by ~100-200 repeats of a 9.1kb sequence arranged in tandem on chromosome XII, the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) locus. Copy number of rDNA repeat units in eukaryotic cells is maintained far in excess of the requirement for ribosome biogenesis. Despite the importance of the repeats for both ribosomal and non-ribosomal functions, it is currently not know...

Ribosomal DNA copy number loss and sequence variation in cancer

Ribosomal DNA is one of the most variable regions in the human genome with respect to copy number. Despite the importance of rDNA for cellular function, we know virtually nothing about what governs its copy number, stability, and sequence in the mammalian genome due to challenges associated with mapping and analysis. We applied computational and droplet digital PCR approaches to measure rDNA co...

Assessment of mitochondrial DNA copy number in peripheral blood leukocyte of opiate abusers and healthy individuals

Background: Based on the studies, variation in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number in peripheral blood leukocytes is associated with increased susceptibility to diseases including cancer. Opiate abusers are at high risk for diseases. In this study, we measured the mtDNA copy number in peripheral blood leukocytes in a group of opiate abusers compared with those in healthy individuals. Met...

Concerted copy number variation balances ribosomal DNA dosage in human and mouse genomes.

Tandemly repeated ribosomal DNA (rDNA) arrays are among the most evolutionary dynamic loci of eukaryotic genomes. The loci code for essential cellular components, yet exhibit extensive copy number (CN) variation within and between species. CN might be partly determined by the requirement of dosage balance between the 5S and 45S rDNA arrays. The arrays are nonhomologous, physically unlinked in m...
