6S RNA plays a role in recovery from nitrogen depletion in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

Abstract Background The 6S RNA is a global transcriptional riboregulator, which is exceptionally widespread among most bacterial phyla. While its role is well-characterized in some heterotrophic bacteria, we subjected a cyanobacterial homolog to functional analysis, thereby extending the scope of 6S...
