Novel trans-translation-associated gene regulation revealed by prophage excision-triggered switching of ribosome rescue pathway
Haruka Onodera, Tatsuya Niwa, Hideki Taguchi, Yuhei Chadani
The paper shows that prophage excision in E. coli inactivates SsrA RNA, switching ribosome rescue from trans-translation to ArfA/RF2, and reveals a regulatory mechanism involving nonstop mRNA translation and ZntR repression.
