Abstract excerpt
Expression of the rate-limiting initiator protein RepR of plasmid pIP501 is controlled by the antisense RNAIII. Mutational alteration of individual G residues within the single-stranded loops of RNAIII led to an increase in copy number. In contrast to the G-rich single-stranded loops, two smaller AT-rich loops of RNAIII were found to be dispensable for its inhibitory function. Reciprocal mutations in the same...
