A search for markers of sugarcane evolution
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 ...

Yeast Rrp8p, a novel methyltransferase responsible for m1A 645 base modification of 25S rRNA [PDF]
Ribosomal RNA undergoes various modifications to optimize ribosomal structure and expand the topological potential of RNA. The most common nucleotide modifications in ribosomal RNA (rRNA) are pseudouridylations and 2'-O methylations (Nm), performed by H ...

Crinoid phylogeny: a preliminary analysis (Echinodermata: Crinoidea) [PDF]
We describe the first molecular and morphological analysis of extant crinoid high-level inter-relationships. Nuclear and mitochondrial gene sequences and a cladistically coded matrix of 30 morphological characters are presented, and analysed by ...

Non-Ribosomal Nucleotide Sequences in 7-S RNA, the Immediate Precursor of 5.8-S Ribosomal RNA in Yeast [PDF]
The topography and the length of the non-ribosomal sequences present in 7-S RNA, the immediate precursor of 5.8-S ribosomal RNA, from the yeast Saccharomyces carlsbergensis were determined by analyzing the nucleotide sequences of the products obtained after complete digestion of 7-S RNA with RNase T1.

1A6/DRIM, a novel t-UTP, activates RNA polymerase I transcription and promotes cell proliferation. [PDF]
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 ...

Glutathione reductase-catalyzed cascade of redox reactions to bioactivate potent antimalarial 1,4-naphthoquinones--a new strategy to combat malarial parasites. [PDF]
Our work on targeting redox equilibria of malarial parasites propagating in red blood cells has led to the selection of six 1,4-naphthoquinones, which are active at nanomolar concentrations against the human pathogen Plasmodium falciparum in culture and ...

PWP1 promotes nutrient-responsive expression of 5S ribosomal RNA
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 ...

A cluster of ribosome synthesis factors regulate pre-rRNA folding and 5.8S rRNA maturation by the Rat1 exonuclease [PDF]
The 5′-exonuclease Rat1 degrades pre-rRNA spacer fragments and processes the 5′-ends of the 5.8S and 25S rRNAs. UV crosslinking revealed multiple Rat1-binding sites across the pre-rRNA, consistent with its known functions.
