The replication advantage of a free linear rRNA gene is restored by somatic recombination in Tetrahymena thermophila.

The autonomously replicating rRNA genes (rDNA) in the somatic nucleus of Tetrahymena thermophila are maintained at a copy number of approximately 10(4) per nucleus. A mutant in which the replication properties of this molecule were altered was isolated and characterized. This mutation of inbred stra...
