Figure 1
Figure 1
Regulation of target RNAs by OxyS and DsrA. The left box shows a schematics of inhibition mechanisms of OxyS and the right box inhibition by DsrA. Target RNAs are shown in blue and antisense RNAs in red. Interacting regions are indicated in green. For clarity, different shades of green are used in the bipartite interactions in the upper two drawings. “+” and “−” indicate activation and inhibition, respectively. RBS indicates the approximate position of the ribosome-binding site. Hfq is host factor Q (see text), and orange mushrooms represent translating ribosomes.
