Toward a Comprehensive Analysis of Posttranscriptional Regulatory Networks: a New Tool for the Identification of Small RNA Regulators of Specific mRNAs
Abstract
With the recognition of the importance of posttranscriptional regulation mediated by bacterial small RNAs (sRNAs), their contribution to global gene expression regulatory networks needs to be addressed in a truly comprehensive manner. While a single sRNA targets multiple RNAs, an mRNA can be regulated by multiple sRNAs that can be either transcribed individually or derived by processing of mRNAs.
