The paper shows that premature termination of transcription by RNA polymerase I limits rRNA production and that a mutant polymerase, SuperPol, reduces this termination, increasing rRNA output.

This study identifies and validates G-quadruplex-forming sequences in archaea, demonstrating their presence and function in vivo and identifying potential resolving enzymes.

This study identifies Hib, a new family of ribosome hibernation factors in Archaea, showing its role in preserving ribosomes during stress and revealing its structural and functional mechanisms.

The paper identifies mutations in RNA polymerase I that enhance its activity, leading to increased rRNA production in yeast.
