The heavy DNA satellite of yeast and its relationship to the ribosomal RNA genes

The heavy satellite DNA of Saccharomyces carlsbergensis has been resolved by preparative NaI density gradient centrifugation. The rRNA genes were found to have a different density than the heavy satellite DNA. The heavy satellite DNA was found to be organized in clusters of molecular weight 15 × 10...

Zusammenfassung:The heavy satellite DNA of Saccharomyces carlsbergensis has been resolved by preparative NaI density gradient centrifugation. The rRNA genes were found to have a different density than the heavy satellite DNA. The heavy satellite DNA was found to be organized in clusters of molecular weight 15 × 10 6, while the majority of the rRNA genes were found to be organized in clusters of 90 × 10 6 or more. These results show that the rRNA genes are not located in the heavy satellite DNA.
