Abstract

Messenger RNA decay is an important mechanism forcontrolling gene expression in all organisms. The rate ofthe mRNA degradation directly affects the steady stateconcentration of mRNAs and therefore influences the pro-tein synthesis. It is assumed that RNase E is the initialpoint for general mRNA decay in

Highlights

  • Messenger RNA decay is an important mechanism for controlling gene expression in all organisms

  • As RNase E is essential for cell viability and knockout mutants can be not cultured, we investigated the possibility for down-regulation of the level of RNase E by antisense RNAs

  • When the cells passed into the stationary phase the level of expressed antisense RNAs decreased markedly
