tmRNA_coding_piece [SO_0000769]
The region of a two-piece tmRNA that bears the reading frame encoding the proteolysis tag. The tmRNA gene undergoes circular permutation in some groups of bacteria. Processing of the transcripts from such a gene leaves the mature tmRNA in two pieces, base-paired together.
