Transcription of repetitive DNA in Neurospora crassa
Abstract
Repeated DNA sequences of Neurospora crassa were isolated and characterized. Approximately 10-12% of N. crassa DNA sequence were repeated, of which 7.3% were found to be transcribed in mid-log phase of mycelial growth as measured by DNA:RNA hybridization. It is suggested that part of repetitive DNA transcripts in N. crassa were mitochondrial and part were nuclear DNA. Most of the nuclear repeated DNAs, however, code for rRNA and tRNA in N. crassa.
