A model of rearrangement of 32S pre-rRNA during processing was proposed. The first step of these events is the cotranscriptional interaction of the 3'-half of 5.8S rRNA and adjacent part of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS-2) with the 3'-part of the small nucleolar U3RNA from its 155th to 215th nucleotides (numbered for a rat U3RNA). This interaction prevents formation of intramolecular double-stranded structure between 5'-and 3'-end sequences of 5.8S rRNA. The second step is the appearance of extended hairpin structures in the ITS-2, which leads to a compactisation of the entire 32S-pre-rRNA molecule and to the complex formation between 5.8S rRNA and 28S rRNA sequences as the result of U3RNA displacing. After elimination of ITS-2 sequences from 32S pre-rRNA this complex can be included into ribosomes.
提出了一个32S前体rRNA加工过程中重排的模型。这些事件的第一步是5.8S rRNA的3'端一半和内部转录间隔区(ITS-2)的相邻部分与小核仁U3RNA从其第155至215个核苷酸(以大鼠U3RNA编号)的3'部分进行共转录相互作用。这种相互作用阻止了5.8S rRNA的5'和3'端序列之间形成分子内双链结构。第二步是ITS-2中出现延伸的发夹结构,这导致整个32S前体rRNA分子紧凑化,并由于U3RNA的置换而导致5.8S rRNA和28S rRNA序列之间形成复合物。从32S前体rRNA中去除ITS-2序列后,该复合物可被纳入核糖体。
