Abstract excerpt
The interdependency of steps in the processing of pre-rRNA in Schizosaccharomyces pombe suggests that RNA processing, at least in part, acts as a quality control mechanism which helps assure that only functional RNA is incorporated into mature ribosomes. To determine further the role of the transcribed spacer regions in rRNA processing and to detect interactions which underlie the interdependencies, the ITS1...
