Disease relevance of csrC

 

High impact information on csrC

  • Polyadenylation promotes the degradation of a regulatory RNA that inhibits the replication of bacterial plasmids and may play a similar role in the degradation of mRNA [6].
  • The OxyS regulatory RNA represses rpoS translation and binds the Hfq (HF-I) protein [7].
  • The OxyS regulatory RNA integrates the adaptive response to hydrogen peroxide with other cellular stress responses and protects against DNA damage [7].
  • To evaluate this interpretation, we examine here how inhibitors affect the stabilities of two untranslated RNAs, i.e., an engineered lacZ mRNA lacking a ribosome binding site, and a small regulatory RNA, RNAI [8].
  • The SraD-mediated decay of ompA mRNA depends on Hfq and in vitro studies revealed that Hfq facilitates binding of the regulatory RNA to the translational initiation region of the messenger [9].
 

Biological context of csrC

  • The agr locus comprises two operons that express a quorum-sensing system from the P2 promoter and a regulatory RNA molecule from the P3 promoter [10].
  • Regulation of ompA mRNA stability: the role of a small regulatory RNA in growth phase-dependent control [9].
  • The resulting RNA-RNA hybrid permits translation of the replicator protein, but blocks base-pairing with a natural negative regulatory RNA [11].
  • Thus, a membrane-bound regulatory RNA binding protein can potentially interact fast enough with its target within the nascent transcript and cause the transcriptional machinery to proceed, before transcriptional termination would occur [12].
  • We propose several alternative functions for the sra gene product, of which that as a regulatory RNA for gene expression may be the most probable one [13].
 

Associations of csrC with chemical compounds

  • Results suggest that a regulatory RNA molecule is involved in GacA-GacS-mediated regulation of Phl and HCN production in P. fluorescens F113 [14].
  • By contrast, MBP-ExpR(71) does not bind ahlI (gene for AHL synthase), pel-1 (gene for pectate lyase), or rsmB (gene for regulatory RNA that binds RsmA), nor does ExpR(71) activate expression of these genes [15].
  • Similarly to the previously described RNA regulatory elements for three vitamins (riboflavin, thiamin and cobalamin), purine and methionine regulons, this regulatory RNA structure is highly conserved on the sequence and structural levels [16].
