Life times of metastable states guide regulatory signaling in transcriptional riboswitches
Riboswitches are RNA-based regulatory elements, which regulate downstream gene expression by binding of small molecular weight ligands. Here the authors demonstrate the molecular mechanism of a transcriptional riboswitch that integrates changes in transcription rates, metabolite concentration, and k...
