Autoregulation of RNase E synthesis: Predominant impact of a branched RNA stem-loop to which the nuclease binds

Due to its crucial role in proteobacterial RNA processing and degradation, the synthesis of the endonuclease RNase E is tightly controlled by a post-transcriptional autoregulatory mechanism governed by the 5' untranslated region of rne mRNA, the transcript that encodes it. Previous studies have identified one structural component of the rne 5' untranslated region (hp2) that helps to mediate this…
