Abstract excerpt
The first step in the current model for the processing and maturation of mono- and polycistronic tRNA precursors in Escherichia coli involves initial cleavages by RNase E 1-3 nt downstream of each chromosomally encoded CCA determinant. Subsequently, each mature 5' terminus is generated by single RNase P cleavage, while the 3' terminus undergoes exonucleolytic processing by a combination of 3' --> 5' exonucleases....
