Activation of alpha-toxin translation in Staphylococcus aureus by the trans-encoded antisense RNA, RNAIII.

The EMBO journal - 15 Sept 1995

Morfeldt E, Taylor D, von Gabain A, Arvidson S

Abstract excerpt

The synthesis of virulence factors in Staphylococcus aureus is controlled by a regulatory RNA molecule, RNAIII, encoded by the agr locus. Transcription of genes coding for secreted toxins and enzymes is stimulated, while transcription of cell-surface protein genes is repressed by RNAIII. In the case of staphylococcal alpha-toxin, RNAIII also seems to stimulate translation by an independent mechanism. In this...
