Identification of streptococcal small RNAs that are putative targets of RNase III through bioinformatics analysis of RNA sequencing data

Abstract Background Small noncoding regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) are post-transcriptional regulators, regulating mRNAs, proteins, and DNA in bacteria. One class of sRNAs, trans-acting sRNAs, are the most abundant sRNAs transcribed from the intergenic regions (IGRs) of the bacterial genome. In Streptococc...
