The Escherichia coli GcvB sRNA Uses Genetic Redundancy to Control cycA Expression

Figure 2

(a) WT terminator t1 and changes in t1 predicted to increase (↑) transcription termination. Primers used to construct the t1↑ allele delete the sequence distal to the t1↑ changes. (b) Northern analysis of GcvB. RNA was isolated from WT, ΔgcvB, or ΔgcvB transformed with a single-copy plasmid carrying the 𝑔 𝑐 𝑣 𝐵 t 1 allele and probed with either a DIG-labeled GcvB or 5S rRNA-specific DNA probe. Numbers above each lane indicate levels of GcvB relative to WT.
