RRP8 (Nucleomethylin, NML), SIRT1, and SUV39H1 form the energy-dependent Nucleolar Silencing Complex (eNoSC) at inactive rRNA genes (Murayama et al. 2008). RRP8 is constitutively located in the nucleolus (Yang et al. 2013), binds histone H3 dimethylated at lysine-9 (Murayama et al. 2008) and appears to recruit SIRT1 from the nucleoplasm to the nucleolus (Yang et al. 2013). The eNoSC binds chromatin throughout the rRNA transcription unit. SIRT1 may deacetylate and, hence, activate SUV39H1 but this has not yet been shown at rDNA. Abrogation of any member of eNoSC interferes with binding of the other members of the complex. The eNoSC complex appears to cause spreading of heterochromatin at rDNA.
