    Bioessays 30:267-72. 2008
    ..Here I would like to propose a new model regarding the roles of the rDNA and nucleolus. The key point of this model is that they act to preserve genome stability and trigger aging...

    T Kobayashi
    National Institute for Basic Biology, Okazaki 444 8585, Japan
    Mol Cell Biol 21:136-47. 2001
    ..This approximately 400-bp DNA element is not required for the RFB activity or the HOT1 activity and therefore defines a function unique to rDNA repeat expansion (and presumably contraction) separate from HOT1 and RFB activities...
