In yeast, transcription of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) by RNA polymerase I (Pol I) is regulated by unique mechanisms acting at the level of the enzyme. Under stress situations such as starvation, Pol I hibernates through dimerization. When growth conditions are restored, dimer disassembly and Rrn3 binding drive enzyme activation and subsequent recruitment to rDNA.
在酵母中,RNA聚合酶I(Pol I)对核糖体DNA(rDNA)的转录由作用于该酶水平的独特机制调控。在诸如饥饿等应激情况下,Pol I通过二聚化进入休眠状态。当生长条件恢复时,二聚体解体以及Rrn3结合驱动酶的激活,并随后使其募集到rDNA。
