Escherichia 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 کاملPurification and Characterization of the Escherichia coli Exoribonuclease RNase R
Escherichia coli RNase R, a 3 3 5 exoribonuclease homologous to RNase II, was overexpressed and purified to near homogeneity in its native untagged form by a rapid procedure. The purified enzyme was free of nucleic acid. It migrated upon gel filtration chromatography as a monomer with an apparent molecular mass of 95 kDa, in close agreement with its expected size based on the sequence of the rn...
متن کاملA 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 کاملAnalysis of Escherichia coli RNase E and RNase III activity in vivo using tiling microarrays
Tiling microarrays have proven to be a valuable tool for gaining insights into the transcriptomes of microbial organisms grown under various nutritional or stress conditions. Here, we describe the use of such an array, constructed at the level of 20 nt resolution for the Escherichia coli MG1655 genome, to observe genome-wide changes in the steady-state RNA levels in mutants defective in either ...
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...
