Abstract excerpt
Induction of translation of the ermC gene product in Bacillus subtilis occurs upon exposure to erythromycin and is a result of ribosome stalling in the ermC leader peptide coding sequence. Another result of ribosome stalling is stabilization of ermC mRNA. The effect of leader RNA secondary structure, methylase translation, and leader peptide translation on induced ermC mRNA stability was examined by constructing...
