Bacterial ribonucleases and their roles in RNA metabolism
Critical reviews in biochemistry and molecular biology, 2019 Ribonucleases (RNases) are mediators in most reactions of RNA metabolism. In recent years, there has been a surge of new information about RNases and the roles they play in cell physiology.

Prediction of Novel Bacterial Small RNAs From RIL-Seq RNA–RNA Interaction Data
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 The genomic revolution and subsequent advances in large-scale genomic and transcriptomic technologies highlighted hidden genomic treasures. Among them stand out non-coding small RNAs (sRNAs), shown to play important roles in post-transcriptional ...

Extracellular vesicles deliver Mycobacterium RNA to promote host immunity and bacterial killing
EMBO Reports, 2019 Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been shown to carry microbial components and function in the host defense against infections. In this study, we demonstrate that Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) RNA is delivered into macrophage‐derived EVs through an M.

Bacterial small RNAs in the Genus Rickettsia [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2015 Rickettsia species are obligate intracellular Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria and the etiologic agents of diseases such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF), Mediterranean spotted fever, epidemic typhus, and murine typhus. Genome sequencing revealed that R. prowazekii has ~25 % non-coding DNA, the majority of which is thought to be either "junk DNA"

Cytological and transcript analyses reveal fat and lazy persister-like bacilli in tuberculous sputum [PDF]
, 2008 As nonreplicating tubercle bacilli are tolerant to the cidal action of antibiotics and resistant to multiple stresses, identification of this persister-like population of tubercle bacilli in sputum presents exciting and tractable new opportunities to ...
