NIH/NIGMS awarded a research project to study bacterial RNA degradation mechanisms, focusing on 5′ end modifications and RNase E scanning.
Description
This project aims to understand the basic principles governing messenger RNA degradation in bacteria, focusing on the impact of 5′ end modifications and the mechanism of RNase E scanning. The research is funded by NIH/NIGMS and is part of the Maximizing Investigators' Research Award (MRAA) study section.
