Mitochondria of the yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Kluyveromyces lactis contain nuclear rDNA-encoded proteins.

In eukaryotes, the nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) is the source of the structural 18S, 5.8S and 25S rRNAs. In hemiascomycetous yeasts, the 25S rDNA sequence was described to lodge an antisense open reading frame (ORF) named TAR1 for Transcript Antisense to Ribosomal RNA. Here, we present the first imm...
