Comparative genomics identifies thousands of candidate structured RNAs in human microbiomes

Abstract Background Structured RNAs play varied bioregulatory roles within microbes. To date, hundreds of candidate structured RNAs have been predicted using informatic approaches that search for motif structures in genomic sequence data. The human microbiome contains thousands of species and strain...
