Summary
The sequences coding for ribosomal RNAs are present as rDNA repeating units distributed on chromosomes 12, 15, 16, 18 and 19. A 45S rRNA, which serves as the precursor for the 18S, 5.8S and 28S rRNA, is transcribed from each rDNA unit by RNA polymerase I. The number of rDNA repeating units varies between individuals and from chromosome to chromosome, although usually 30 to 40 repeats are found on each chromosome. These rDNA repeats are not currently annotated on the reference genome. This gene represents the portion of one rDNA repeat which encodes a 28S rRNA. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
