| Method |
Abstract:"Here, [investigators] report a genome-wide RNA degradation study in Escherichia coli using RNA-seq, and present evidence that the stereotypical exponential RNA decay curve obtained using initiation inhibitor, rifampicin, consists of two phases: residual RNA synthesis, a delay in the interruption of steady state that is dependent on distance relative to the mRNA's 5' end, and the exponential decay." |
| Comments |
P.4 right column 2nd paragraph:"A few of the mRNA transcription rates are in the range of speeds typically associated with ribosomal RNA transcription (~70 nt/s) and may be the consequence of regulation by transcriptional elongation factors (primary source)." |
