Model of glycine riboswitch evolution. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Model proposed for the evolution and divergence of the glycine riboswitch. In this model a progenitor tandem riboswitch conserves one of the tandem aptamers based on the genomic context of the riboswitch, while the other slowly degrades down to the ...

Riboswitches: Structures and Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2010
A critical feature of the hypothesized RNA world would have been the ability to control chemical processes in response to environmental cues. Riboswitches present themselves as viable candidates for a sophisticated mechanism of regulatory control in RNA-based life.

Transcriptional pausing at the translation start site operates as a critical checkpoint for riboswitch regulation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
International audienceOn the basis of nascent transcript sequencing, it has been postulated but never demonstrated that transcriptional pausing at translation start sites is important for gene regulation.

Incoherent dual regulation by a SAM-II riboswitch controlling translation at a distance

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2022
In Sinorhizobium meliloti, the methionine biosynthesis genes metA and metZ are preceded by S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) riboswitches of the SAM-II class. Upon SAM binding, structural changes in the metZ riboswitch were predicted to cause transcriptional

Bifidobacterium bifidum SAM-VI Riboswitch Conformation Change Requires Peripheral Helix Formation

open access: yesBiomolecules
The Bifidobacterium bifidum SAM-VI riboswitch undergoes dynamic conformational changes that modulate downstream gene expression. Traditional structural methods such as crystallography capture the bound conformation at high resolution, and additional ...

Conformational dynamics of the tetracycline-binding aptamer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The conformational dynamics induced by ligand binding to the tetracycline-binding aptamer is monitored via stopped-flow fluorescence spectroscopy and time-correlated single photon counting experiments.

An in vivo high-throughput screening for riboswitch ligands using a reverse reporter gene system

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Riboswitches are bacterial RNA elements that regulate gene expression in response to metabolite or ion abundance and are considered as potential drug targets. In recent years a number of methods to find non-natural riboswitch ligands have been described.

Alkyltransferase Ribozyme for Site‐Specific N4‐Cytidine Alkylation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 20, 11 May 2026.
CSAR is the first ribozyme that catalyzes direct alkylation of an exocyclic amino group of an RNA nucleobase. The ribozyme was isolated as a self‐labeling catalyst from an in vitro selection library and engineered into a trans‐active ribozyme that catalyzes the transfer of a benzyl group from an O6‐modifed guanine to the N4 amino group of a specific ...
