Nucleolar dominance and ribosomal RNA gene silencing.
Nucleolar dominance is an epigenetic phenomenon that occurs in genetic hybrids and describes the expression of 45S rRNA genes inherited from one progenitor due to the silencing of the other progenitor's rRNA genes. Nucleolar dominance is a manifestation of rRNA gene dosage control, which also occurs in non-hybrids, regulating the number of active rRNA genes according to the cellular demand for ...
متن کاملBirth of a nucleolus: the evolution of nucleolar compartments.
In eukaryotes, ribosome synthesis largely takes place in a specialized nuclear domain - the nucleolus. It has recently become apparent that this organelle is involved in the biogenesis of most cellular ribonucleoprotein particles (RNPs), as well as in cell-cycle regulation, making it central to gene expression. The field has traditionally acknowledged that each nucleolus is organized in three m...
متن کاملMouse dyskerin mutations affect accumulation of telomerase RNA and small nucleolar RNA, telomerase activity, and ribosomal RNA processing.
Dyskerin is a nucleolar protein present in small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein particles that modify specific uridine residues of rRNA by converting them to pseudouridine. Dyskerin is also a component of the telomerase complex. Point mutations in the human gene encoding dyskerin cause the skin and bone marrow failure syndrome dyskeratosis congenita (DC). To test the extent to which disruption of ...
متن کاملThe organization of ribosomal RNA processing correlates with the distribution of nucleolar snRNAs.
We have analyzed the organization of pre-rRNA processing by confocal microscopy in pea root cell nucleoli using a variety of probes for fluorescence in situ hybridization and immunofluorescence. Our results show that transcript processing within the nucleolus is spatially highly organized. Probes to the 5' external transcribed spacer (ETS) and first internal transcribed spacer (ITS1) showed tha...
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...
