RyeB RNA

Non-coding RNA

The SdsR/RyeB RNA is a non-coding RNA that was identified in a large scale screen of E. coli. The exact 5′ and 3′ ends of this RNA are uncertain. This RNA overlaps the SraC/RyeA RNA on the opposite strand suggesting that the two may act in a concerted manner. It is transcribed by general stress factor σs and is most highly expressed in stationary phase. SdsR/RyeB RNA interacts with Hfq.
