Mapping of ribosomal RNA transcripts in wheat.
Ribosomal RNA transcripts in wheat have been studied by RNA gel blotting and their termini determined from electrophoretic analysis of S1 nuclease-resistant RNA/DNA hybrids and also of hybrids created by primer extension. A major putative transcription initiation site has been localized 1132 base pairs upstream from the 5' end of the 18S RNA sequence. A major putative processing site occurs 640...
متن کاملIntergenic transcripts originating from a subclass of ribosomal DNA repeats silence ribosomal RNA genes in trans.
Epigenetic silencing of a fraction of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) requires association of the nucleolar chromatin-remodelling complex NoRC to 150-250 nucleotide RNAs (pRNA) that originate from an RNA polymerase I promoter located in the intergenic spacer separating rDNA repeats. Here, we show that NoRC-associated pRNA is transcribed from a sub-fraction of hypomethylated rRNA genes during mid S phase, ...
متن کاملIs wheat mitochondrial 5S ribosomal RNA prokaryotic in nature?
Küntzel et al. (1981) (Nucleic Acids Res. 9, 1451-1461) recently concluded that the sequence of wheat mitochondrial 5S rRNA is significantly more related to prokaryotic than to eukaryotic 5S rRNA sequences, and displays an especially high affinity to that of the thermophilic Gram-negative bacterium, Thermus aquaticus. However, the sequence on which this conclusion was based, although attributed...
متن کاملRibosomal RNA cistron multiplicity and nucleolar organizers in hexaploid wheat.
The ribosomal DNA (DNA complementary to ribosomal RNA) content of twelve different wheat genotypes has been studied. Some of these genotypes are aneuploids with deletions or additions of chromosomes bearing nucleolar organisers. The rDNA contents of these genotypes provide several examples of a clear departure from a correlation between the number of rRNA cistrons and the number of nucleolar or...
متن کاملPosition effects of ribosomal RNA multigene loci on meiotic recombination in wheat.
Homeologous wheat chromosome arms that differ by the presence or absence of a Nor locus or greatly differ in the numbers of copies of rRNA genes per Nor locus show conspicuous differences in the distribution of recombination. To assess directly the position effects of Nor loci on recombination across chromosome arms, a Triticum monococcum Nor9 haplotype was substituted for Triticum aestivum Nor...
