Abstract excerpt
We show in the present paper that the cleavages initiating decay of the ompA mRNA are suppressed both in the Escherichia coli ams(ts) strain (originally defined by a prolonged bulk mRNA half-life) and in the me(ts) strain (originally defined by aberrant 9S RNA processing). The temperature-sensitive defects of both these strains are complemented by a recombinant lambda phage containing a genomic segment that...
