While the regulation of mRNA lifetime is well-recognized as vital for gene expression in eukaryotes, it has long been assumed that bacteria lack sophisticated mechanisms for regulating mRNA stability and degradation. Our findings challenge this assumption, revealing that bacterial mRNAs possess unexpected properties and employ molecular mechanisms that rival in complexity those in eukaryotic systems. ================= Vivian Stojanoff, PhD Education, Training, Outreach User Program p 1(631) 344 8375 e [email protected]mailto:[email protected] w https://www.bnl.gov/ps/lifesciences/https://www.bnl.gov/ps/lsbr/ Address: Center for Biomolecular Structure National Synchrotron Light Source II Building 745 Brookhaven National Laboratory Upton NY 11973
