Yeast Genome > Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)

The following information is about Ribosomal RNA (rRNA).

Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) Defined

The abundant RNA component of both cytosolic and mitochondrial ribosomes. 5S, 5.8S, 18S and 25S rRNAs are components of the cytosolic ribosomes encoded in a 1-2 Mb region, known as the ribosomal DNA repeat, on the right arm of chromosome XII. This region contains 100-200 tandem copies of a 9.1 kb repeat that is transcribed as a precursor 35S pre-rRNA which is later processed to yield the mature form. Mitochondrial ribosomes contain 15S and 21S rRNAs that are encoded by the mitochondrial chromosome.

This definition is in context to Yeast Genome. See more contextual defintions for Ribosomal RNA (rRNA).
