Abstract: Riboswitches are cis-acting regulatory mRNA elements in bacteria, that modulate the expression of their associated genes in response to a cognate metabolite, operating either on the level of translation or transcription. Transcriptional riboswitches have to… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2020.607158
Abstract: Transcriptional riboswitches involve RNA aptamers that are typically found in the 5′ untranslated regions (UTRs) of bacterial mRNAs and form alternative secondary structures upon binding to cognate ligands. Alteration of the riboswitch's secondary structure results… read more here.
