What is the role of small RNAs (sRNAs) in bacterial gene regulation?
What is the role of small RNAs (sRNAs) in bacterial gene regulation?
Small RNAs can repress levels of one protein and promote another, regulate gene expression, and cause mRNA destruction by RNase, blocking translation.
How does 6S RNA impact gene transcription in growing E. coli cells entering stationary phase?
How does 6S RNA impact gene transcription in growing E. coli cells entering stationary phase?
6S RNA binds RNA Pol, down-regulates transcription, and promotes transcription of survival proteins as cells enter stationary phase.
What is the function of Hfq protein in bacterial mRNA translation regulation?
What is the function of Hfq protein in bacterial mRNA translation regulation?
Hfq aids binding of short, imperfect matching mRNA-sRNA, stabilizes it, and helps sRNA bind mRNA target.
