Recent Advances on the Structure and Function of RNA Acetyltransferase Kre33/NAT10
Ribosome biogenesis is one of the most energy demanding processes in the cell. In eukaryotes, the main steps of this process occur in the nucleolus and include pre-ribosomal RNA (pre-rRNA) processing, post-transcriptional modifications, and assembly of ...

Yeast pre-rRNA is processed at the A' site.
Maturation of the pre-ribosomal RNA (pre-rRNA) in eukaryotes involves a series of processing steps that remove transcribed spacer sequences to produce mature ribosomes. In many organisms two processing sites are located in the 5'external transcribed spacer (5'ETS), along with the site that defines the 5'-end of the 18S rRNA.

Linker 2 of the eukaryotic pre-ribosomal processing factor Mrd1p is an essential interdomain functionally coupled to upstream RNA Binding Domain 2 (RBD2). [PDF]
Ribosome synthesis is an essential process in all cells. In Sacharomyces cerevisiae, the precursor rRNA, 35S pre-rRNA, is folded and assembled into a 90S pre-ribosomal complex. The 40S ribosomal subunit is processed from the pre-ribosomal complex.

Use of RNA secondary structure for evolutionary relationships : investigating RNase P and RNase MRP : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Genetics at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
Bioinformatics is applied here to examine whether RNA secondary structure data can reflect distant evolutionary relationships. This is important when there is little confidence in sequence data such as when looking at the evolution of RNase MRP (MRP ...

USP16 counteracts mono-ubiquitination of RPS27a and promotes maturation of the 40S ribosomal subunit
Establishment of translational competence represents a decisive cytoplasmic step in the biogenesis of 40S ribosomal subunits. This involves final 18S rRNA processing and release of residual biogenesis factors, including the protein kinase RIOK1.

A temperature sensitive mutant ofSaccharomyces cerevisiaedefective in pre-rRNA processing [PDF]
A recessive temperature sensitive mutant has been isolated that is defective in ribosomal RNA processing. By Northern analysis, this mutant was found to accumulate three novel rRNA species: 23S', 18S' and 7S', each of which contains sequences from the spacer region between 25S and 18S rRNA.

Rex1p Deficiency Leads to Accumulation of Precursor Initiator tRNA\u3csup\u3eMet\u3c/sup\u3e and Polyadenylation of Substrate RNAs in \u3cem\u3eSaccharomyces cerevisiae\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
A synthetic genetic array was used to identify lethal and slow-growth phenotypes produced when a mutation in TRM6, which encodes a tRNA modification enzyme subunit, was combined with the deletion of any non-essential gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Ribosome biogenesis plays a pivotal role in maintaining stem cell homeostasis, yet the precise regulatory mechanisms governing this process in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) remain largely unknown.

snR30/U17 Small Nucleolar Ribonucleoprotein: A Critical Player during Ribosome Biogenesis
The small nucleolar RNA snR30 (U17 in humans) plays a unique role during ribosome synthesis. Unlike most members of the H/ACA class of guide RNAs, the small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein (snoRNP) complex assembled on snR30 does not direct pseudouridylation
