The results showed that nucleolar DNA of rat liver cells comes from nucleolus-associated chromatin, and continuously extends in the dense fibrillar component (DFC) of nucleolus, localizes at the periphery of fibrillar center (FC) and in DFC. Furthermore, by employing anti-DNA/RNA hybrid antibodies, we directly and selectively labeled transcription sites of rRNA genes and testified that localization of transcription sites not only to DFC but also to the periphery of FC.展开更多

The rRNA synthesis in the nucleolus continued actively throughout the interphase, while in nucleoplasm hnRNA was transcribed at law levels in S phase and actively in G(2) phase. The rate of nucleoplasm RNA transcription was doubled between early S phase and late S phase, and a 5-6 folds increase was detected between the early S phase and G(2) phase.展开更多
