Abstract excerpt
The higher-order organization of rRNA genes was investigated in the yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe. We used pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) in combination with frequent cutter endonucleases having no recognition sites within rDNA repeating units to characterize tandem arrays of ribosomal genes in these two species. Large variations in rDNA cluster length were detected in...
