Clostridioides difficile CD25890 is a YicC-like endoribonuclease involved in regulating sporulation initiation, a process critical for the host-host transmission of this anaerobic pathogen. Using comparative transcriptomics we identified a small RNA, SQ528, that accumulates at higher levels in a CD25890 deletion mutant and we show that purified CD25890 cleaves SQ528 in a metal-dependent manner. Moreover, the ov...
