  - 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.

These RNAs do not have a precursor/product relationship, but result from the use of alternative processing pathways. In the major pathway, a previously unidentified processing site in ITS1, designated A3, is cleaved. A 10 nucleotide deletion at site A3 strongly inhibits processing of A3 and the synthesis of 5.8S(S); processing is predominantly transferred to the alternative 5.8S(L) pathway.

ABSTRACTWe 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 5.8S rRNA is heterogeneous; we designate the major, short form 5.8S(S), and the minor form (which is seven or eight nucleotides longer) 5.8S(L). These RNAs do not have a precursor/product relationship, but result from the use of alternative processing pathways. In the major pathway, a previously unidentified processing site in ITS1, designated A3, is cleaved. A 10 nucleotide deletion at site A3 strongly inhibits processing of A3 and the synthesis of 5.8S(S); processing is predominantly transferred to the alternative 5.8S(L) pathway.
