biology Bacillus subtilis function Terminator

TrrnO TrrnO is a terminator derived from Bacillus subtilis rrn operon (it encodes rRNA). It can be used as a final part of a transcription unit. However, according to dr. Libor Krasny from Laboratory of Microbial Genetics and Gene Expression in Prague (Czech Republic), it is not necessary to put a terminator at the end of each transcriptional unit. According to his experience, it does no harm to Bacillus subtilis when the transcription of a heterologous gene is not terminated by a terminator and is left to end spontaneously anywhere downstream the stop codon.
