expression increases at the onset of the stationary phase [Pubmed|22229825]the mRNA is destabilized upon interaction with the antitoxin RNA [protein|search|SR4] [Pubmed|22229825]the mRNA is degraded by [protein|search|Rnc], [protein|search|Rny] and [protein|search|Rnr] [Pubmed|22229825]Regulatory mechanism
the mRNA is degraded by [protein|search|Rnc], [protein|search|Rny] and [protein|search|Rnr], degradation is enhanced at higher temperature [Pubmed|22229825]at elevated temperatures, [SW|Rny] and [SW|RnjA] are responsible for the enhance degradation of the mRNA [Pubmed|26802042]Additional information
