The organization of transcriptionally active ribosomal genes in animal cell nucleoli is investigated in this study. We demonstrate that each nucleolar focus observed by LM corresponds, on the EM level, to an individual fibrillar center (FC) and surrounding dense fibrillar components (DFCs). The EM data identify the DFC as the nucleolar subcompartment in which rRNA synthesis takes place. Intense and unambiguous clustered immunogold signal of nascent transcripts is strongly indicative of nascent 'Christmas trees' of rRNA associated with individual rDNA genes.
