Regulation of the Escherichia coli tna operon: nascent leader peptide control at the tnaC stop codon.

abstract：:A segment of early RNA from Bacillus subtilis bacteriophage SP82 was shown to function as a 5' stabilizer in B. subtilis. Several heterologous RNA sequences were stabilized by the presence of the SP82 sequence at the 5' end, and expression of downstream coding sequences was increased severalfold. The SP82 RNA segment ...
