This paper presents the updated version (Y2K) of the database of ribosomal 5S ribonucleic acids (5S rRNA) and their genes (5S rDNA), http://rose.man/poznan.pl/5SData/index.html. This edition of the database contains 1985primary structures of 5S rRNA and 5S rDNA. They include 60 archaebacterial, 470 eubacterial, 63 plastid, nine mitochondrial and 1383 eukaryotic sequences. The nucleotide sequenc...
The mitochondrial genome of basal animals is generally more slowly evolving than that of bilaterians. This difference in rate complicates the study of relationships among members of these lineages and the discovery of cryptic species or the testing of morphological species concepts within them. We explore the properties of mitochondrial and nuclear ribosomal genes in the cnidarian order Actinia...
The DNase I accessibility and chromatin organization of genes within the nucleus do correlate to their transcriptional activity. Here, we show that both serum starvation and overexpression of Tip5, a key regulator of ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) repression, dictate DNase I accessibility, facilitate the association of rDNA with the nuclear matrix and thus regulate large-scale rDNA chromatin organiz...
The analysis of the denaturated gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified 16S rDNA fingerprints demonstrated a high diversity of bacterial communities in the soils from the three study sites at the surface and subsurface soil layers. The undegraded site possessed maximum number of 16S rDNA fingerprints than the degraded and undegraded sites at both soi...
We discuss the evolutionary significance of four aberrant 18S rDNA clones that were obtained from human, chimpanzee, and gorilla DNA libraries. We show that these clones carry representatives of a small 18S rDNA pseudogene family that arose in a common ancestor of these species. Aspects of their structure and phylogenetic distribution suggest that the 18S pseudogenes no longer interact genetica...
Ribosomes are essential intracellular machines composed of proteins and RNA molecules. The DNA sequences (rDNA) encoding ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) are tandemly repeated and give origin to the nucleolus. Here we develop a computational method for estimating rDNA dosage (copy number) and mitochondrial DNA abundance using whole-genome short-read DNA sequencing. We estimate these attributes across hun...
To facilitate the differential identification of the genus Streptomyces, the 16S rRNA genes of 17 actinomycetes were sequenced and screened for the existence of streptomycete-specific signatures. The 16S rDNA of the Streptomyces strains and Amycolatopsis orientalis subsp. lurida exhibited 95-100% similarity, while that of the 16S rDNA of Actinoplanes utahensis showed only 88% similarity to the ...
The activity of rRNA genes (rDNA) is regulated by pathways that target the transcription machinery or alter the epigenetic state of rDNA. Previous work has established that downregulation of rRNA synthesis in quiescent cells is accompanied by upregulation of PAPAS, a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that recruits the histone methyltransferase Suv4-20h2 to rDNA, thus triggering trimethylation of H4K2...
Calorie restriction (CR) extends lifespan in yeast, worms, flies and mammals, suggesting that it acts via a conserved mechanism. In yeast, activation of the NAD-dependent histone deacetylase, Sir2, by CR is thought to increase silencing at the ribosomal DNA, thereby reducing the recombination-induced generation of extrachromosomal rDNA circles, hence increasing replicative lifespan. Although ac...
The ribosomal DNA (rDNA) genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are located in a tandem array of about 150 repeats. Using a diploid with markers flanking and within the rDNA array, we showed that low levels of DNA polymerase alpha elevate recombination between both homologues and sister chromatids, about five-fold in mitotic cells and 30-fold in meiotic cells. This stimulation is independent of Fob1...
