Small RNAs in bacteria and archaea: who they are, what they do, and how they do it
EGH Wagner, P Romby - Advances in genetics, 2015 - Elsevier
Small RNAs are ubiquitously present regulators in all kingdoms of life. Most bacterial and
archaeal small RNAs (sRNAs) act by antisense mechanisms on multiple target mRNAs …

Conserved bacterial RNase YbeY plays key roles in 70S ribosome quality control and 16S rRNA maturation
Quality control of ribosomes is critical for cellular function since protein mistranslation leads
to severe physiological consequences. We report evidence of a previously unrecognized …

The bacterial protein Hfq: much more than a mere RNA-binding factor
P Sobrero, C Valverde - Critical reviews in microbiology, 2012 - Taylor & Francis
Most of the sequenced bacterial genomes contain a gene encoding a protein known as Hfq
that resembles the eukaryotic RNA-binding proteins of the LSm family. It was originally …

Cycling of RNAs on hfq
EGH Wagner - RNA biology, 2013 - Taylor & Francis
The RNA chaperone Hfq is a key player in small RNA (sRNA)-mediated regulation of target
mRNAs in many bacteria. The absence of this protein causes pleiotropic phenotypes such …

Small regulatory RNAs from low-GC Gram-positive bacteria
S Brantl, R Brückner - RNA biology, 2014 - Taylor & Francis
Small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) that act by base-pairing were first discovered in so-called
accessory DNA elements—plasmids, phages, and transposons—where they control …
