Trying on tRNA for Size: RNase P and the T-box Riboswitch as Molecular Rulers

Length determination is a fundamental problem in biology and chemistry. Numerous proteins measure distances on linear biopolymers to exert effects with remarkable spatial precision. Recently, ruler-like devices made of noncoding RNAs have been structurally and biochemically characterized. Two promin...
