Abstract excerpt
Antisense regulation of IS10 transposase synthesis is mediated by a small RNA molecule, RNA-OUT which is complementary to the 5' region of the IS10 transposase mRNA, RNA-IN. Pairing between the two species in vivo prevents initiation of RNA-IN translation by steric occlusion of the ribosome binding site. The goal of this work is to develop a mathematical basis for antisense repression in vivo. Thus, by modeling...
