Repression of interrupted and intact rDNA by the SUMO pathway in Drosophila melanogaster

Repression of interrupted and intact rDNA by the SUMO pathway in Drosophila melanogaster

Ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) are essential components of the ribosome and are among the most abundant macromolecules in the cell. To ensure high rRNA level, eukaryotic genomes contain dozens to hundreds of rDNA genes, however, only a fraction of the rRNA genes seems to be active, while others are transcri...
