Figure EV2. Hfq affects the translation of ribosomal proteins.

1. Translational downregulation of ribosomal protein genes in the Δhfq strain. Comparison of mRNA expression (top panels) and protein production (bottom panels) of ribosomal proteins between the wild‐type and Δhfq strains used in this study and an additional wild‐type data set (WT#2; Hwang & Buskirk, 2017).
2. Schematic organization of the ribosomal protein genes their respective operons. The operons were arbitrarily numbered 1–18.
