The 5' pufQ mRNA segment and the pufLMX mRNA segment of Rhodobacter capsulatus exhibit different stabilities. Degradation of both mRNA segments is initiated by RNase E-mediated endonucleolytic cleavage. While Rhodobacter RNase E does not discriminate between the different sequences present around the cleavage sites within pufQ and pufL, Escherichia coli RNase E shows preference for the sequence harboring more A and U residues.
荚膜红细菌的5' pufQ mRNA片段和pufLMX mRNA片段表现出不同的稳定性。这两个mRNA片段的降解均由核糖核酸酶E介导的内切核酸酶切割引发。虽然荚膜红细菌核糖核酸酶E对pufQ和pufL内切割位点周围存在的不同序列没有区分,但大肠杆菌核糖核酸酶E对含有更多A和U残基的序列表现出偏好。
