Abstract excerpt
RNase E is an endoribonuclease and plays a central role in RNA metabolism. Cyanobacteria, as ancient oxygen-producing photosynthetic bacteria, also contain RNase E homologues. Here, we introduced mutations into the S1 subdomain (F53A), the 5'-sensor subdomain (R160A), and the DNase I subdomain (D296A) according to the key activity sites of Escherichia coli RNase E. The results of degradation assays demonstrated...
