An essential part of gene expression is the coordination of RNA synthesis and degradation, which occurs in the same cellular compartment in bacteria. Here, we report a genome‐wide RNA degradation study in Escherichia coli using RNA‐seq, and present evidence that the stereotypical exponential RNA dec...
