Antisense RNAs as preferred substrates of the archaeal exosome. a cDNA reads and crosslink sites at the tRNA-Ser locus (SSO_RS01080, alias SSOt12) show strong enrichment of antisense RNA in the iCLIP. b cDNA reads and crosslink sites in the intergenic region between two convergently transcribed genes (SSO_RS01650 encoding a hypothetical protein on the plus strand and SSO_RS01655 encoding tRNA 4-thiouridine (8) synthase ThiI on the minus strand) show strong iCLIP enrichment of potentially antisense transcripts corresponding to overlapping 3′-UTRs. For other descriptions see Fig. 2. The results of the second iCLIP experiment are shown in Fig. S6 (Additional file 1)
