The fast track is cotranscriptional

Mol Cell. 2010 Mar 26;37(6):745-6. doi: 10.1016/j.molcel.2010.03.006.

Abstract

The extent of contranscriptional processing of the 35S pre-rRNA in budding yeast is unclear. In this issue of Molecular Cell, Kos and Tollervey (2010) report their findings from rapid-labeling kinetics and quantitative analyses to address this issue.
