Ribonuclease M5 has few, if any, mRNA substrates in Bacillus subtilis.
In Bacillus subtilis, maturation of 5S rRNA is catalyzed by an enzyme called RNase M5. We searched for potential mRNA substrates for RNase M5 by gene array technology, based on the premise that most endonucleolytic cleavages have an effect on the stability of RNA and hence on steady-state levels of expression. Only a handful of genes had significantly altered expression in rnmV mutants compared...
متن کاملInduced mRNA stability in Bacillus subtilis.
We have investigated the induced stability of mRNA encoded by the ermC gene in Bacillus subtilis. Induction of ermC gene expression by erythromycin is known to occur at the translational level. We show that this induction is accompanied by an increase in ermC mRNA half-life from about 2 min to about 40 min. Induced stabilization of ermC mRNA occurs independently of induced translation. The regu...
متن کاملTetracycline induces stabilization of mRNA in Bacillus subtilis.
The tet(L) gene of Bacillus subtilis confers low-level tetracycline (Tc) resistance. Previous work examining the >20-fold-inducible expression of tet(L) by Tc demonstrated a 12-fold translational induction. Here we show that the other component of tet(L) induction is at the level of mRNA stabilization. Addition of a subinhibitory concentration of Tc results in a two- to threefold increase in te...
متن کاملMechanism of decay of the cry1Aa mRNA in Bacillus subtilis.
We undertook the study of the decay process of the cry1Aa mRNA of Bacillus thuringiensis expressed in B. subtilis. The cry1Aa transcript is a 3.7-kb mRNA expressed during sporulation whose transcriptional control has previously been studied in both B. subtilis and B. thuringiensis. We found that the cry1Aa mRNA has a half-life of around 9 min and that its decay occurs through endoribonucleolyti...
متن کاملProduction of Xylanase on Natural Substrates by Bacillus subtilis
Bacillus subtilis, locally isolated, produced significant level of xylanase activity in the presence of different carbon sources. However, B. subtilis performed well when grown on pretreated natural substrates such as rice straw, wheat straw, bagasse, wheat bran and kraft pulp at 2% concentration. The organism produced higher level of xylanasse activity when bagasse was used as a carbon source ...
