Structural elucidation of a novel mechanism for the bacteriophage-based inhibition of the RNA degradosome

In all domains of life, the catalysed degradation of RNA facilitates rapid adaptation to changing environmental conditions, while destruction of foreign RNA is an important mechanism to prevent host infection. We have identified a virus-encoded protein termed gp37/Dip, which directly binds and inhib...
