A Plausible Role for the Presence of Internal Shine-Dalgarno Sites

The presence of nucleotide hybridization between the 3′ end of 16S rRNA and mRNA sequence upstream of the start codon is well known in bacteria. In this paper, we detect the presence of such hybridization sites inside the coding regions of E. coli genes, and analyze their proximity to clusters of sl...
