Functional and dynamic aspects of the mammalian nucleolus

Please always quote using this URN: urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-34269
  • Nucleoli are the sites of ribosome biogenesis. Transcription of the ribosomal RNA genes as well as processing and initial packaging of their transcripts with ribosomal and non-ribosomal proteins all occur within the nucleolus in an ordered manner and under defined topological conditions. Components of the nucleolus have been localized by immunocytochemistry and their functional aspects investigated by microinjection of antibodies directed against the enzyme responsible for rDNA transcription, RNA polymerase I.

The role of nascent transcripts in postmitotic formation of nucleoli will be discussed.show moreshow less
