Many interesting features distinguish human mitochondrial DNA from its nuclear counterpart ... mutation in a mitochondrial genome-encoded ribosomal RNA, called RNR1, causes postlingual deafness ...

The researchers engineered a system to anchor ribosomal DNA to the nuclear membrane and reduce nucleolar enlargement during the replicative lifespan of the yeast. This system involved expressing ...

The central dogma of molecular biology suggests that the primary role of RNA is to convert the information stored in DNA into proteins ... where rRNA processing and ribosomal assembly take ...

In a study published today (February 14) in Genome Research, researchers describe a new clock, composed of methylation sites in ribosomal DNA. This timekeeper is found in species as diverse as mice, ...
