Regulating with RNA in Bacteria and Archaea
Revealing the many roles of RNA in regulating gene expression
For decades after the discoveries of messenger RNA, transfer RNA, and ribosomal RNA, it was largely assumed that the role of RNA in the cell was limited to shuttling the genomic message, chaperoning amino acids, and toiling in the ribosomes.
Eventually, hints that RNA molecules might have regulatory roles began to appear. With the adven...
