abstract

  • sRNAs have long been purported to be a critical mechanism by which bacteria respond to stress; however, uncovering growth phenotypes for sRNA deletion strains in E. coli and related bacteria has proven particularly challenging. In contrast, the deletion of hfq , a chaperone required for the activity of many sRNAs in E. coli , results in striking growth defects in E. coli under a variety of medium conditions and chemical stressors.
