Magnification of genes coding for ribosomal RNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
When a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae monosomic for chromosome I and initially deficient for 25% of the genes coding for ribosomal RNA is repeatedly subcultured, the number of these genes increases to and remains stable at the number in the wild type. This strain shows 2:2; viable: inviable first division segregation and hemizygosity for the ade1 gene (a chromosome I marker), evidence that ...
متن کاملInitiation of Ageing Process by Meiotic and Mitotic Recombination within the Ribosomal DNA Genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
In the budding yeast of Saccharomyces cerevisiae the tandem repeated of rDNA genes are located onchromosome XII, which is in the nucleolus. There are different types of proteins in the nucleoluskeleton,silencing proteins have got important role in nucleolus.It is shown that meiotic recombination between nonsister chromatids in the rDNA genes are stronglysuppressed, and s...
متن کاملOrganization of replication of ribosomal DNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Using recently developed replicon mapping techniques, we have analyzed the replication of the ribosomal DNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The results show that (i) the functional origin of replication colocalizes with an autonomously replicating sequence element previously mapped to the nontranscribed spacer region, (ii) only a fraction of the potential origins are utilized in a single S phase, ...
متن کاملIdentification of DNA cis elements essential for expansion of ribosomal DNA repeats in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae carries approximately 150 ribosomal DNA (rDNA) copies in tandem repeats. Each repeat consists of the 35S rRNA gene, the NTS1 spacer, the 5S rRNA gene, and the NTS2 spacer. The FOB1 gene was previously shown to be required for replication fork block (RFB) activity at the RFB site in NTS1, for recombination hot spot (HOT1) activity, and for rDNA repeat expansion and contr...
متن کاملRibosomal DNA organization before and after magnification in Drosophila melanogaster.
In all eukaryotes, the ribosomal RNA genes are stably inherited redundant elements. In Drosophila melanogaster, the presence of a Ybb(-) chromosome in males, or the maternal presence of the Ribosomal exchange (Rex) element, induces magnification: a heritable increase of rDNA copy number. To date, several alternative classes of mechanisms have been proposed for magnification: in situ replication...
