Methylation of Ribosomal RNA: A Mitochondrial Perspective
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) from all organisms undergoes post-transcriptional modifications that increase the diversity of its composition and activity. In mitochondria, specialized mitochondrial ribosomes (mitoribosomes) are responsible for the synthesis of 13

Ribosomal transcription is regulated by PGC-1alpha and disturbed in Huntington’s disease
Scientific Reports, 2017 PGC-1α is a versatile inducer of mitochondrial biogenesis and responsive to the changing energy demands of the cell. As mitochondrial ATP production requires proteins that derive from translation products of cytosolic ribosomes, we asked whether PGC-1α ...

Roles of transcriptional and translational control mechanisms in regulation of ribosomal protein synthesis in Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2017 Bacterial ribosome biogenesis is tightly regulated to match nutritional conditions and to prevent formation of defective ribosomal particles. InEscherichia coli, most ribosomal protein (r-protein) synthesis is coordinated with rRNA synthesis by a ...

Variant ribosomal RNA alleles are conserved and exhibit tissue-specific expression
Science Advances, 2018 Ribosomal RNA sequence variants are conserved, exhibit tissue-specific expression, and are found in actively translating ribosomes. The ribosome, the integration point for protein synthesis in the cell, is conventionally considered a homogeneous ...

Magnification of Genes Coding for Ribosomal RNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
, 1977 When a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae monosomic for chromosome I and initially deficient for 25% of the genes coding for ribosomal RNA is repeatedly subcultured, the number of these genes increases to and remains stable at the number in the wild type.

Folding molecular origami from ribosomal RNA
Journal of NanobiotechnologyApproximately 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.
