Regulation of gene expression plays a key role in the ability of bacteria to rapidly adapt to changing environments and to colonize extremely diverse habitats. The relatively recent discovery of a plethora of small regulatory RNAs and the beginning of their characterization has unravelled new aspects of bacterial gene expression. First, the expression of many bacterial genes responds to a complex network of both transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulators. However, the properties of the resulting regulatory circuits on the dynamics of gene expression and in the bacterial adaptive response have been poorly addressed so far. In a first part of this project, we will tackle this question by characterizing the circuits that are formed between two widespread classes of bacterial regulators, the sRNAs and the two-component systems, which act at the post-transcriptional and the transcriptional level, respectively. The study of sRNAs also led to major breakthroughs regarding the basic mechanisms of gene expression. In particular, we recently showed that repressor sRNAs can target activating stem-loop structures located within the coding region of mRNAs that promote translation initiation, in striking contrast with the previously recognized inhibitory role of mRNA structures in translation. The second objective of this project is thus to draw an unprecedented map of non-canonical translation initiation events and their regulation by sRNAs. Overall, this project will greatly improve our understanding of how bacteria can so rapidly and successfully adapt to many different environments, and in the long term, provide clues towards the development of anti-bacterial strategies.
Are you the coordinator (or a participant) of this project? Plaese send me more information about the "BACTRNA" project.
For instance: the website url (it has not provided by EU-opendata yet), the logo, a more detailed description of the project (in plain text as a rtf file or a word file), some pictures (as picture files, not embedded into any word file), twitter account, linkedin page, etc.
Send me an email (fabio@fabiodisconzi.com) and I put them in your project's page as son as possible.
Thanks. And then put a link of this page into your project's website.
