Abstract excerpt
The Escherichia coli RrmJ (FtsJ) heat shock protein functions as an rRNA methyltransferase that modifies position U2552 of 23S rRNA in intact 50S ribosomal subunits. An in-frame deletion of the rrmJ (ftsJ) gene leads to severe growth disadvantages under all temperatures tested and causes signific...
