A multiple mutant of Escherichia coli lacking the exoribonucleases RNase II, RNase D, and RNase BN.
A multiple mutant strain of Escherichia coli containing mutations affecting the exoribonucleases, RNase II, RNase D, and RNase BN, and also the endonuclease, RNase I, was constructed by P1-mediated transduction. Extracts of the mutant strain were lacking the aforementioned RNase activities. The multiple mutant displayed normal growth in both rich and minimal media at a variety of temperatures, ...
متن کاملEscherichia coli RNase R has dual activities, helicase and RNase.
In Escherichia coli, the cold shock response occurs when there is a temperature downshift from 37 degrees C to 15 degrees C, and this response is characterized by induction of several cold shock proteins, including the DEAD-box helicase CsdA, during the acclimation phase. CsdA is involved in a variety of cellular processes. Our previous studies showed that the helicase activity of CsdA is criti...
متن کاملActivities of RNase BN in vivo Exoribonuclease and Endoribonuclease Activities of RNase BN/RNase Z Both Function In Vivo*
Escherichia coli RNase BN, a member of the RNase Z family of endoribonucleases, differs from other family members in that it also can act as an exoribonuclease in vitro. Here, we examine whether this activity of RNase BN also functions in vivo. Comparison of the X-ray structure of RNase BN with that of Bacillus subtilis RNase Z, which lacks exoribonuclease activity, revealed that RNase BN has a...
متن کاملThe presence of only one of five exoribonucleases is sufficient to support the growth of Escherichia coli.
Escherichia coli contains multiple exoribonucleases. Strains lacking the exoribonucleases RNase II, D, BN, T, and PH are inviable. The introduction of a chromosomal, wild-type copy of the gene for any one of these enzymes is sufficient to allow cell growth, with the enzymes being in the following order of effectiveness: RNase T > RNase PH > RNase D > RNase II > RNase BN. The data indicate that ...
متن کاملEscherichia coli RNase M is a multiply altered form of RNase I.
RNase M, an enzyme previously purified to homogeneity from Escherichia coli, was suggested to be the RNase responsible for mRNA degradation in this bacterium. Although related to the endoribonuclease, RNase I, its distinct properties led to the conclusion that RNase M was a second, low molecular mass, broad specificity endoribonuclease present in E. coli. However, based on sequence analysis, so...
