Hfq and RNase R Mediate rRNA Processing and Degradation in a Novel RNA Quality Control Process

ABSTRACT RNA quality control pathways are critical for cell survival. Here, we describe a new surveillance process involved in the degradation of highly structured and stable ribosomal RNAs. The results demonstrated that the RNA chaperone Hfq and the 3′–5′ exoribonuclease R mediate the elimination o...
