β-galactosidase assay result summary. Results from two independent trials of the β-galactosidase assay depicted in Fig. 5b. (Each trial involved triplicate independent transformants for each mutant). In these assays, Miller units for each sample were corrected by first subtracting the value for the Hfq1 strain (used as a negative control), and then were compared to the corrected value for the wild-type Hfq3 strain, set to 100%. Mutants with negative values exhibited lower expression than the Hfq1 control strain. While we observed some variability in the signal as a percentage of the wild-type Hfq3 signal between trials, the same rank order of mutant expression levels was observed in each trial. Table S2.
