Siz2 Prevents Ribosomal DNA Recombination by Modulating Levels of Tof2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

The genes that encode rRNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are organized as multiple repeats. The repetitive nature and heavy transcription of this region make it prone to DNA breaks. DNA breaks could lead to recombination, which could result in either loss or gain of repeats with detrimental consequenc...
