| Comments: | The readthrough terminator downstream of bioB leads to a 5.0 kb (as measured by Bower et al.) / 5.1 kb (as measured by Perkins et al.) bioWAFDB transcript. Readthrough termination was confirmed by Perkins et al. by deleting the stem-loop structure downstream of bioB. Perkins et al. also found a monocistronic bioW transcript of 0.8 kb, which may be an RNA degradation product. |
