Abstract excerpt
In the past few years an increasing number of small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) in enterobacteria have been found to negatively regulate the expression of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) at the post-transcriptional level. These RNAs act under various growth and stress conditions, suggesting that one important physiological role of regulatory RNA molecules in Gram-negative bacteria is to modulate the cell surface...
