Abstract excerpt
Ubiquitous RNA-binding protein Hfq mediates the regulatory activity of many small RNAs (sRNAs) in bacteria. To identify potential targets for Hfq-mediated regulation in Salmonella, we searched for lacZ translational fusions whose activity varied in the presence or absence of Hfq. Fusions downregulated by Hfq were more common than fusions showing the opposite response. Surprisingly, in a subset of isolates from...
