Degradation of <i>txpA</i> (AUG→AAG) mRNA by RNase III is RatA-dependent.

Abstract

<p>Northern blots performed on RNA isolated at times (min) after rifampicin addition in (A) strain CCB467 <i>txpA</i> (AUG→AAG) and (B) strain CCB468 <i>txpA</i> (AUG→AAG) P<i>ratA::ery</i>, depleted or not for RNase III. Northerns were re-probed for 5S rRNA (5S) for normalization. Half-lives are given below each panel.</p
