(A to D) Response of mature rRNA and pre-rRNA to antibiotics. Antibiotics have differential effects on rRNA and pre-rRNA. Rifampin and ciprofloxacin selectively inhibited transcription of new pre-rRNA, while the addition of chloramphenicol and gentamicin resulted in a selective decrease in mature rRNA. Error bars estimated the standard deviations.
