Riboswitches are RNA structures able to bind small molecules and regulate gene expression at both, transcriptional and translational level. They are present in a wide variety of bacterial species. In Bacillus subtilis more than 2% of the genome is regulated by riboswitches. Metabolite binding is highly specific and can be provided in cooperative manner.

Programming Next‐Generation Synthetic Biosensors by Genetic Circuit Design
Synthetic biology enables genetic circuit‐based biosensing to detect diverse targets, process signals, and transduce them into readable outputs or intracellular regulatory activities. However, field deployment and real‐world application of such synthetic biosensors face considerable challenges in sensitivity, specificity, speed, stability, and ...

Synthetic Cells on Demand: From Molecular Stimuli to Cellular Functions
ABSTRACT Synthetic cells constructed via bottom‐up approaches using lipid or polymer vesicles have become essential tools for mimicking cellular functions and studying synthetic biological systems. These vesicles can undergo morphological changes and trigger internal reactions in response to external stimuli, such as osmotic pressure, temperature, pH ...

Novel TPP-riboswitch activators bypass metabolic enzyme dependency
Riboswitches are conserved regions within mRNA molecules that bind specific metabolites and regulate gene expression. TPP-riboswitches, which respond to thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP), are involved in the regulation of thiamine metabolism in numerous ...

The Structure of the Guanidine-II Riboswitch
The guanidine-II (mini-ykkC) riboswitch is the smallest of the guanidine-responsive riboswitches, comprising two stem loops of similar sequence. We have solved high-resolution crystal structures of both stem loops for the riboswitch from Gloeobacter violaceus. The stem loops have a strong propensity to dimerize by intimate loop-loop interaction.

Abundance and functional diversity of riboswitches in microbial communities
Background Several recently completed large-scale enviromental sequencing projects produced a large amount of genetic information about microbial communities ('metagenomes') which is not biased towards cultured organisms.
