Abstract

Repeating RNA sequences often serve as protein targets during regulatory processes involving single-stranded RNA (ssRNA). New data on the HutP protein show how it is activated and binds a repeat-containing ssRNA. Together with previous work, these studies demonstrate the versatility of RNA-binding proteins in regulating transcription in bacteria.
