Ribosomal RNA processing undergoes surveillance by the mRNA guard protein Npl3 [PDF]
Ribosome production is an essential, but highly energy-demanding and complex cellular process. High-fidelity ribosome assembly is critical to ensure integrity of the proteome, and during their biogenesis, the pre-ribosomal subunits undergo surveillance ...

Folding molecular origami from ribosomal RNA [PDF]
Approximately 80 percent of the total RNA in cells is ribosomal RNA (rRNA), making it an abundant and inexpensive natural source of long, single-stranded nucleic acid, which could be used as raw material for the fabrication of molecular origami.

Evidence for further non-coding RNA genes in the fungal rDNA region [PDF]
Non-coding RNA (ncRNA) genes play important, but incompletely understood, roles in various cellular processes, notably translation and gene regulation.

Ribosomal control in RNA virus-infected cells
Viruses are strictly intracellular parasites requiring host cellular functions to complete their reproduction cycle involving virus infection of host cell, viral genome replication, viral protein translation, and virion release.

It was Francis Crick who first asked why the ribosome contains so much RNA, and discussed the implications of this for the direct flow of genetic information from DNA to protein. Remarkable advances in our understanding of the ribosome and protein synthesis, including the recent publication of two mammalian mitochondrial ribosome structures, have shed ...

Varying strength of selection contributes to the intragenomic diversity of rRNA genes
Ribosomal RNA genes are abundant in eukaryotic genomes and code for the universal and essential RNA components of the ribosome. This study uncovers high sequence diversity of the genes within a single species and discusses the contribution of selection ...

The mitochondrial ribosome and ribosomal RNA of the chick [PDF]
Reports have appeared on large molecular weight RNAs associated with the mitochondria of higher organisms. These include HeLa cells [ 1 ] , BHK-2 1 cells [2] , mouse L-cells [3,4] , rat liver [4, S] and Xenopus ovary [6] . This RNA consists of two predominant species found to be 17 S and 13 S by sedimentation [2, 31 .
