In G-less cassette, transcription will stop at the end of the cassette where the first G is required, yielding an aborted transcript of predictable size (based on the size of the G-less cassette, which is usually a few hundred base pairs long).

Attenuator riboswitch (Leader sequence) region 1 is translated  till UGA (R1-2) at high trp concentration due to two conditions

 Ribosome quickly crosses codon 10, 11

After crossing codon 10, 11 ribosome prematurely terminated at UGA at the end of Region 1

In E. coli the typical mRNA half-life is about 3 minutes, but half-lives of individual mRNAs may be as short as 20 seconds or as long as 90 minutes.  In budding yeast, mRNA half-lives range from 3 to 100 minutes, whereas in metazoans, half-lives range from minutes to hours, and in rare cases, even days.
