Reduced heme levels underlie the exponential growth defect of the Shewanella oneidensis hfq mutant.

Reduced heme levels underlie the exponential growth defect of the Shewanella oneidensis hfq mutant.

The RNA chaperone Hfq fulfills important roles in small regulatory RNA (sRNA) function in many bacteria. Loss of Hfq in the dissimilatory metal reducing bacterium Shewanella oneidensis strain MR-1 results in slow exponential phase growth and a reduced terminal cell density at stationary phase. We ha...
