Identification of RNase III cleavage sites in Escherichia coli
In this study we generated 5'P libraries in wt and RNAse III mutant strains, grown to exponential and stationary phases.  Libraries that retain short RNA fragments were also generated in both growth phases. After sequencing by Illumina NextSeq 500 system, reads were mapped to E. coli genome NC_000913.3. By comparing the read start counts per position in the wt and mutant strain libraries we identified the cleavage sites of RNase III.
