Bifunctional transfer-messenger RNA.

Biochimie - 1 Nov 2011

Keiler Kenneth C, Ramadoss Nitya S

Abstract excerpt

Transfer-messenger RNA (tmRNA) is a bifunctional RNA that has properties of a tRNA and an mRNA. tmRNA uses these two functions to release ribosomes stalled during translation and target the nascent polypeptides for degradation. This concerted reaction, known as trans-translation, contributes to translational quality control and regulation of gene expression in bacteria. tmRNA is conserved throughout bacteria, and...
