physiological function | RNase III is a widespread endoribonuclease that binds and cleaves double-stranded RNA in many critical transcripts. RNase III cleavage at additional sites found in RNA of genes aceEF, proP, tnaC, dctA, pheM, sdhC, yhhQ, glpT, aceK, and gluQ accelerate RNA decay, consistent with previously described targets wherein RNase III cleavage initiates rapid degradation of secondary messages by other RNases. In contrast, cleavage at three sites in the ahpF, pflB, and yajQ transcripts lead to stabilized secondary transcripts. Two other sites in hisL and pheM overlap with transcriptional attenuators that likely serve to ensure turnover of these highly structured RNAs. Many of the additional RNase III target sites are located on transcripts encoding metabolic enzymes, while two RNase III sites are located within transcripts encoding enzymes near a key metabolic node connecting glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle | Escherichia coli |
