Abstract excerpt
The polycistronic mRNA of the histidine operon is subject to a processing event that generates a rather stable transcript encompassing the five distal cistrons. The molecular mechanisms by which such a transcript is produced were investigated in Escherichia coli strains carrying mutations in several genes for exo- and endonucleases. The experimental approach made use of S1 nuclease protection assays on in vivo...
