C0343 RNA
Encyclopedia
The C0343 RNA is a bacterial non-coding RNA
of 74 nucleotides in length that is found between the ydaN and dbpA gene
s in the genomes of Escherichia coli
and Shigella flexneri
, Salmonella enterica
and Salmonella typhimurium. This ncRNA was originally identified in E.coli using high-density oligonucleotide probe arrays
(microarray). The function of this ncRNA is unknown.
FnrS RNA
was later found to be transcribed
from the same intergenic region as C0343 RNA.
Non-coding RNA
A non-coding RNA is a functional RNA molecule that is not translated into a protein. Less-frequently used synonyms are non-protein-coding RNA , non-messenger RNA and functional RNA . The term small RNA is often used for short bacterial ncRNAs...

Gene
A gene is a molecular unit of heredity of a living organism. It is a name given to some stretches of DNA and RNA that code for a type of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the organism. Living beings depend on genes, as they specify all proteins and functional RNA chains...

Escherichia coli
Escherichia coli is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that is commonly found in the lower intestine of warm-blooded organisms . Most E. coli strains are harmless, but some serotypes can cause serious food poisoning in humans, and are occasionally responsible for product recalls...

Shigella flexneri
Shigella flexneri is a species of Gram-negative bacteria in the genus Shigella that can cause diarrhea in humans. There are several different serogroups of Shigella; S. flexneri belongs to group B. S. flexneri infections can usually be treated with antibiotics although some strains have become...

FnrS RNA
FnrS RNA
FnrS RNA is a family of Hfq-binding small RNA whose expression is upregulated in response to anaerobic conditions. It is named FnrS because its expression is strongly dependant on fumarate and nitrate reductase regulator , a direct oxygen availability sensor.A conserved intergenic region between...

Transcription (genetics)
Transcription is the process of creating a complementary RNA copy of a sequence of DNA. Both RNA and DNA are nucleic acids, which use base pairs of nucleotides as a complementary language that can be converted back and forth from DNA to RNA by the action of the correct enzymes...
