rnc_Bb is in an operon. (A) Northern blot analysis of 15 μg of total RNA fractionated on a formaldehyde-agarose gel, blotted to a nylon membrane, and hybridized with an oligonucleotide probe (gray bar in panel B). (B) Deep-sequencing results displayed as a coverage map. The chromosomal location and genomic context of the region around rnc_Bb (bb0705) are depicted above and below the coverage map, respectively. The wavy arrows represent the predicted polycistronic mRNAs, and the gray bar illustrates the location of the probe used in the Northern blot.
