A Haloarchaeal Small Regulatory RNA (sRNA) Is Essential for Rapid Adaptation to Phosphate Starvation Conditions

The haloarchaeon Haloferax volcanii contains nearly 2800 small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs). One intergenic sRNA, sRNA132, was chosen for a detailed characterization. A deletion mutant had a growth defect and thus underscored the importance of sRNA132. A microarray analysis identified the transcript of a...
