Transcription of multiple yeast ribosomal DNA genes requires targeting of UAF to the promoter by Uaf30.

Molecular and cellular biology - 1 Nov 2008

Abstract excerpt

Upstream activating factor (UAF) is a multisubunit complex that functions in the activation of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) transcription by RNA polymerase I (Pol I). Cells lacking the Uaf30 subunit of UAF reduce the rRNA synthesis rate by approximately 70% compared to wild-type cells and produce rRNA us...
