Nutrient depletion and TOR inhibition induce 18S and 25S ribosomal RNAs resistant to a 5'-phosphate-dependent exonuclease in Candida albicans and other yeasts.

Digestion of RNA by Terminator has revealed 18S and 25S rRNA molecules different from the accepted processed ones seen in ribosome generation. The reason for these molecules and the underlying mechanism for their formation is unknown. The preservation of this behavior across these yeasts suggests a useful biological role for it, worthy of further inquiry.
