A search for markers of sugarcane evolution
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2001 To determine the phylogenetic relationship between sugarcane cultivars and other members of the Saccharinae subtribe, we identified the fast evolving ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 (ITS = internal transcribed spacer; 5.8S = 5.8S ribosomal DNA) region of the sugarcane ...

1A6/DRIM, a novel t-UTP, activates RNA polymerase I transcription and promotes cell proliferation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Ribosome biogenesis is required for protein synthesis and cell proliferation. Ribosome subunits are assembled in the nucleolus following transcription of a 47S ribosome RNA precursor by RNA polymerase I and rRNA processing to produce mature 18S, 28S and ...

Control of ribosome traffic by position-dependent choice of synonymous codons [PDF]
Phys. Biol. 10 (2013) 056011, 2013 Messenger RNA encodes a sequence of amino acids by using codons. For most amino acids there are multiple synonymous codons that can encode the amino acid. The translation speed can vary from one codon to another, thus there is room for changing the ribosome speed while keeping the amino acid sequence and hence the resulting protein.

Distribution of dwell times of a ribosome: effects of infidelity, kinetic proofreading and ribosome crowding [PDF]
Physical Biology, 8 (2011) 026005, 2010 Ribosome is a molecular machine that polymerizes a protein where the sequence of the amino acid residues, the monomers of the protein, is dictated by the sequence of codons (triplets of nucleotides) on a messenger RNA (mRNA) that serves as the template. The ribosome is a molecular motor that utilizes the template mRNA strand also as the track. Thus, in

PWP1 promotes nutrient-responsive expression of 5S ribosomal RNA
Biology Open, 2018 PWP1 is a chromatin binding protein with an important role in animal growth control downstream of mTOR-mediated nutrient sensing. PWP1 has been shown to control tissue growth by promoting the transcription of 5.8S, 18S and 28S ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) by ...

Stochastic theory of protein synthesis and polysome: ribosome profile on a single mRNA transcript [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology, vol.289, 36-46 (2011), 2011 The process of polymerizing a protein by a ribosome, using a messenger RNA (mRNA) as the corresponding template, is called {\it translation}. Ribosome may be regarded as a molecular motor for which the mRNA template serves also as the track. Often several ribosomes may translate the same (mRNA) simultaneously.
