Structural transitions during large ribosomal subunit maturation analyzed by tethered nuclease structure probing in S. cerevisiae. [PDF]
Yeast large ribosomal subunit (LSU) precursors are subject to substantial changes in protein composition during their maturation due to coordinated transient interactions with a large number of ribosome biogenesis factors and due to the assembly of ...

Regulation of rRNA Processing: A Role for a Unique GTPase [PDF]
Recent findings by Karbstein et al. (2005 [this issue of Molecular Cell]) reveal that association of the preribosomal biosynthesis factors U3 snoRNA and Rcl1p is controlled by the GTPase Bms1p, suggesting that regulatory events are involved in the formation of ribosome biogenesis complexes.

The 5S ribonucleoprotein particle (RNP) complex, consisting of RPL11, RPL5, and 5S rRNA, is implicated in p53 regulation under ribotoxic stress. Here, we show that the 5S RNP contributes to p53 activation and promotes cellular senescence in response to ...

A functional interface at the rDNA connects rRNA synthesis, pre-rRNA processing and nucleolar surveillance in budding yeast. [PDF]
Ribogenesis is a multistep error-prone process that is actively monitored by quality control mechanisms. How ribosomal RNA synthesis, pre-rRNA processing and nucleolar surveillance are integrated is unclear.

Rok1p Is a Putative RNA Helicase Required for rRNA Processing [PDF]
The synthesis of ribosomes involves many small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein particles (snoRNPs) as transacting factors. Yeast strains lacking the snoRNA, snR10, are viable but are impaired in growth and delayed in the early pre-rRNA cleavages at sites A0, A1, and A2, which lead to the synthesis of 18S rRNA.

Processing human urine and ureteral stents for 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing
Summary: Ureteral stents are commonly used medical devices that harbor a unique and patient-specific microbial community. This protocol describes an optimized procedure for high-quality DNA extraction from both urine and ureteral stent samples for the ...

Trypanosome MTR4 is involved in rRNA processing
The yeast putative RNA helicase Mtr4p is implicated in exosome-mediated RNA quality control in the nucleus, interacts with the exosome, and is found in the 'TRAMP' complex with a yeast nuclear poly(A) polymerase (Trf4p/Pap2p or Trf5p) and a putative RNA-binding protein, Air1p or Air2p. Depletion of the Trypanosoma brucei MTR4-like protein TbMTR4 caused

snR30/U17 is a highly conserved H/ACA RNA that is required for maturation of the small ribosomal subunit in eukaryotes. By base-pairing to the expansion segment 6 (ES6) of 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA), the snR30 H/ACA Ribonucleoprotein (RNP) indirectly ...

Regulatory Aspects of rRNA Modification and Pre-rRNA Processing
The major types of posttranscriptional modification are the isomerization of uracil to pseudouridine, 2′-O-methylation of the ribose moieties and base methylation. In addition to their roles in pre-rRNA modification, both Dim1p and Cbf5p are required for pre-rRNA processing, and Pet56p is required for synthesis of mitochondrial large ribosomal subunits.
