Remarkable advances have been made in the identification of the promoter regions for the ribosomal RNA genes from lower and higher eukaryotes. There has been some progress in the elucidation of the factors that control transcription of the ribosomal RNA gene. The characterization of the transcriptio

## Eukaryotic genes are divided into three categories according to the machineries by which they are transcribed. Ribosomal RNA genes (rDNA) are the only ones that are transcribed by RNA polymerase Iand are under diflerent control from other genes transcribed by RNA polymerase 11 or III. None the le
We have attempted to determine the site of termination of transcription of ribosomal RNA in the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. While a quantitative description of the termination sites of RNA polymerase I is not possible using presently available methods, we conclude that transcription of most mol
