Tor1 and CK2 kinases control a switch between alternative ribosome biogenesis pathways in a growth-dependent manner.

Ribosome biogenesis is a major energy-consuming process in the cell that has to be rapidly down-regulated in response to stress or nutrient depletion. The target of rapamycin 1 (Tor1) pathway regulates synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) at the level of transcription initiation. It remains unclear whe...
