23S rRNA

• The 23S rRNA is one of the two RNA components of the large subunit of the ribosome.
• 23S rRNA is degraded by RNase Y in aging spores PubMed

• It is encoded by 10 identical genes:

• rrnA-23S
• rrnB-23S
• rrnD-23S
• rrnE-23S
• rrnG-23S
• rrnH-23S
• rrnI-23S
• rrnJ-23S
• rrnO-23S
• rrnW-23S
