Article Synopsis
- Ribosome biogenesis is essential for cellular function and varies in rate based on the maturation of precursor ribosomal RNA (pre-rRNA).
- High temperature stress in plants halts normal pre-rRNA maturation and triggers a unique processing pathway for 35S pre-rRNA, producing an unusual rRNA precursor that combines elements that typically do not co-exist.
- This atypical response to heat is also observed in rice and tomato plants, lasts for up to an hour after stress, and contributes to the depletion of polysome and pre-rRNA levels.
