It is unknown how ribosomal gene (rDNA) arrays from multiple chromosomal nucleolar organizers (NORs) partition within human nucleoli. Exploration of this paradigm for chromosomal organization is complicated by the shared DNA sequence composition of five NOR-bearing acrocentric chromosome p-arms. Here, we devise a methodology for genetic manipulation of individual NORs. Efficient “scarless” genome editing of rDNA repeats is achieved on “poised” human NORs held within monochromosomal cell hybrids. Subsequent transfer to human cells introduces “active” NORs yielding readily discernible functional customized ribosomes. We reveal that ribosome biogenesis occurs entirely within constrained territories, tethered to individual NORs inside a larger nucleolus.

Human nucleoli comprise multiple constrained territories, tethered to individual chromosomes
