RNA-mediated regulation in bacteria: from natural to artificial systems
Abstract
Bacteria use various means of RNA-mediated gene regulation. Regulatory RNAs include mRNA leaders that affect expression in cis or in trans, non-coding RNAs that trap regulatory proteins or interact with one or multiple target mRNAs, and RNAs that protect the bacteria against foreign and invasive DNA. The aim of this review is to outline the basic principles of bacterial RNA-mediated regulation, with a special focus on both cis-acting regulatory regions of mRNAs and antisense RNAs (asRNAs), and to give a brief overview of selected examples of RNA-based technology that have paved the way for biotechnological applications.
