The ribosomal RNA genes of Drosophila mitochondrial DNA.
The nucleotide sequence of a segment of the mtDNA molecule of Drosophila yakuba which contains the A+T-rich region and the small and large rRNA genes separated by the tRNAval gene has been determined. The 5' end of the small rRNA gene was located by S1 protection analysis. In contrast to mammalian mtDNA, a tRNA gene was not found at the 5' end of the D. yakuba small rRNA gene. The small and lar...
متن کاملRecombination between Ribosomal Rna Genes
Previous workers have shown that intergeneric crosses between Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli produce a high proportion of merodiploid recombinants among the viable progeny. We have examined the unequal crossover event that was responsible for a number of intergeneric merodiploids. The merodiploids that we studied were all heterozygous for the metB-argH interval and were the product...
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 کاملVariation among human 28S ribosomal RNA genes.
We report the complete 5025-base sequence of the human 28S rRNA gene. Variability within the species has been demonstrated by sequencing a variable region from six separately cloned genes. This region is one of three large subunit rRNA regions that show extreme sequence and size variation among species. The interspecies differences suggest species-specific functions for these sections, while th...
متن کاملLarge Variations in Bacterial Ribosomal RNA Genes
Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, essential to all forms of life, have been viewed as highly conserved and evolutionarily stable, partly because very little is known about their natural variations. Here, we explored large-scale variations of rRNA genes through bioinformatic analyses of available complete bacterial genomic sequences with an emphasis on formation mechanisms and biological significance....
