intracellular | RNaseE is organized as a cytoskeletal structure in vivo. RNaseE and the other known degradosome components (RNA helicase B, polynucleotide phosphorylase, and enolase) are organized as helical filamentous structures that coil around the length of the cell. These resemble the helical structures formed by the MreB and MinD cytoskeletal proteins. Formation of the RNaseE cytoskeletal-like structure requires an internal domain of the protein that does not include the domains required for any of its known interactions or the minimal domain required for endonuclease activity. The constituents of the RNA degradosome are components of the Escherichia coli cytoskeleton, either assembled as a primary cytoskeletal structure or secondarily associated with another underlying cytoskeletal element | Escherichia coli | 5622 | - |
