The gene coding for small ribosomal subunit RNA in the basidiomycete Ustilago maydis contains a group I intron [PDF]
The nucleotide sequence of the gene coding for small ribosomal subunit RNA in the basidiomycete Ustilago maydis was determined. It revealed the presence of a group I intron with a length of 411 nucleotides.

Polymorphism and gene conversion of the 16S rRNA genes in the multiple rRNA operons ofVibrio parahaemolyticus [PDF]
The genome sequence of a strain of Vibrio parahaemolyticus holds 11 copies of rRNA operons (rrn) with identical 16S rRNA genes (rrs). Conversely, the species type strain contains two rrs classes differing in 10 nucleotide sites within a short segment of 25 bp.

Conditional inactivation of Upstream Binding Factor reveals its epigenetic functions and the existence of a somatic nucleolar precursor body. [PDF]
Upstream Binding Factor (UBF) is a unique multi-HMGB-box protein first identified as a co-factor in RNA polymerase I (RPI/PolI) transcription. However, its poor DNA sequence selectivity and its ability to generate nucleosome-like nucleoprotein complexes ...

Isolation and characterization of a thermophilic, obligately anaerobic and heterotrophic marine Chloroflexi bacterium from a Chloroflexi dominated microbial community associated with a Japanese shallow hydrothermal system, and proposal for Thermomarinilinea lacunofontalis gen. nov., sp. nov. [PDF]
A novel marine thermophilic and heterotrophic Anaerolineae bacterium in the phylum Chloroflexi, strain SW7T, was isolated from an in situ colonization system deployed in the main hydrothermal vent of the Taketomi submarine hot spring field located on the

Chimeric 16S rRNA sequence formation and detection in Sanger and 454-pyrosequenced PCR amplicons.
Bacterial diversity among environmental samples is commonly assessed with PCR-amplified 16S rRNA gene (16S) sequences. Perceived diversity, however, can be influenced by sample preparation, primer selection, and formation of chimeric 16S amplification ...

Transposition of a chromosomal segment bounded by redundant rRNA genes into other rRNA genes in Escherichia coli [PDF]
We have constructed several mutants of Escherichia coli which have the chromosomal segment between the directly repeated rrnB and rrnE genes deleted from the normal position and transposed into another one of the seven redundant rRNA genes. We have examples where the transposition has been into rrnC, rrnD, rrnG, and rrnH.

Molecular characterization of Borrelia persica, the agent of tick borne relapsing fever in Israel and the Palestinian Authority. [PDF]
The identification of the Tick Borne Relapsing Fever (TBRF) agent in Israel and the Palestinian Authority relies on the morphology and the association of Borrelia persica with its vector Ornithodoros tholozani. Molecular based data on B. persica are very

Phylogenetic position of the Hypsugo alaschanicus based on complete mitochondrial genome sequences
The mitogenome of the Hypsugo alaschanicus is a circular module of 16,911 bp, which consists of 37 genes, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes (12S rRNA and 16S rRNA), and a control region. The mitogenome of H. alaschanicus

Analyses of rRNA gene chromatin in cell cycle arrested Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells
The existence of two chromatin structures in the rDNA locus was previously demonstrated for a large variety of organisms, ranging from yeast to human. In yeast there are about 150–200 rRNA genes organized in tandem repeats.
