Abstract excerpt
We have developed techniques for the detailed analysis of cis-acting sequences in the pre-rRNA of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and used these to study the processing of internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) leading to the synthesis of 5.8S rRNA. As is the case for many eukaryotes, the 5' end of yeast...
