Isolation of a transcription complex for ribosomal 5S RNA. [PDF]
Cloned 5S rRNA genes from Xenopus borealis oocytes can be used to assemble functional transcription complexes from cytoplasmic HeLa cell extracts as a source for polymerase III and all factors additionally required for faithful 5S RNA transcription.

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 ...

The ribosomal RNA genes (rDNA) are tandemly arrayed in most eukaryotes and exhibit vast copy number variation. There is growing interest in integrating this variation into genotype–phenotype associations.

Karyotypic analysis and isolation of four DNA markers of the scleractinian coral Favites pentagona (Esper, 1795) (Scleractinia, Anthozoa, Cnidaria) [PDF]
We performed conventional and molecular cytogenetic studies on the Favites pentagona Esper, 1795, a scleractinian coral mostly found along the west coast of Japan. Karyotype analysis of F.

A novel association between two trypanosome-specific factors and the conserved L5-5S rRNA complex. [PDF]
P34 and P37 are two previously identified RNA binding proteins in the flagellate protozoan Trypanosoma brucei. RNA interference studies have determined that the proteins are involved in and essential for ribosome biogenesis.

Non-canonical binding interactions of the RNA recognition motif (RRM) domains of P34 protein modulate binding within the 5S ribonucleoprotein particle (5S RNP). [PDF]
RNA binding proteins are involved in many aspects of RNA metabolism. In Trypanosoma brucei, our laboratory has identified two trypanosome-specific RNA binding proteins P34 and P37 that are involved in the maturation of the 60S subunit during ribosome ...

5S Ribosomal RNA Database [PDF]
Ribosomal 5S RNA (5S rRNA) is an integral component of the large ribosomal subunit in all known organisms with the exception only of mitochondrial ribosomes of fungi and animals. It is thought to enhance protein synthesis by stabilization of a ribosome structure. This paper presents the updated database of 5S rRNA and their genes (5S rDNA).
