Abstract excerpt
RNase G is a homologue of the essential Escherichia coli ribonuclease RNase E. Whereas RNase E plays a key role in the degradation of mRNA and the processing of tRNA and rRNA in E. coli, the biological functions of RNase G appear more limited. We report here that this difference in function is not merely a consequence of the significantly lower cellular concentration of RNase G, but also reflects differences in...
