A Prophage-Encoded Small RNA Controls Metabolism and Cell Division in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Escherichia coli</named-content>

ABSTRACT Hundreds of small RNAs (sRNAs) have been identified in diverse bacterial species, and while the functions of most remain unknown, some regulate key processes, particularly stress responses. The sRNA DicF was identified over 25 years ago as an inhibitor of cell division but since then has re...
