Ribonuclease J-Mediated mRNA Turnover Modulates Cell Shape, Metabolism and Virulence in <i>Corynebacterium diphtheriae</i>

Controlled RNA degradation is a crucial process in bacterial cell biology for maintaining proper transcriptome homeostasis and adaptation to changing environments. mRNA turnover in many Gram-positive bacteria involves a specialized ribonuclease called RNase J (RnJ). To date, however, nothing is know...
