Structural Biology of Bacterial RNA Polymerase [PDF]
Since its discovery and characterization in the early 1960s (Hurwitz, J. The discovery of RNA polymerase. J. Biol. Chem. 2005, 280, 42477–42485), an enormous amount of biochemical, biophysical and genetic data has been collected on bacterial RNA ...

Metatranscriptomic profiling reveals pathogen and host response signatures of pediatric acute sinusitis and upper respiratory infection. [PDF]
Background Acute sinusitis (AS) is a frequent cause of antibiotic prescriptions in children. Distinguishing bacterial AS from common viral upper respiratory infections (URIs) is crucial to prevent unnecessary antibiotic use but is challenging with ...

Transfer RNA is an essential adapter molecule that is found across all three domains of life. The primary role of transfer RNA resides in its critical involvement in the accurate translation of messenger RNA codons during protein synthesis and, therefore, ultimately in the determination of cellular gene expression.

Processing of bacterial RNA [PDF]
Processing of RNA is a feature of RNA metabolism which contributes to the determination of the fmal population of active RNA molecules in the cell. Pro- cessing is the sum of events which converts a primary RNA transcript into a functional molecule. RNA processing in bacteria consists mainly of two parts, modification of nucleotides and cutting and ...

Biological insights from RIL-seq in bacteria [PDF]
Bacteria reside in constantly changing environments and require rapid and precise adjustments of gene expression to ensure survival. Small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) are a crucial element that bacteria utilize to achieve this. sRNAs are short RNA molecules that modulate gene expression usually through base-pairing interactions with target RNAs, primarily ...
