A spermidine riboswitch class in bacteria exploits a close variant of an aptamer for the enzyme cofactor S-adenosylmethionine
Summary: Natural polyamines such as spermidine and spermine cations have characteristics that make them highly likely to be sensed by riboswitches, such as their general affinity to polyanionic RNA and their broad contributions to cell physiology. Despite previous claims that polyamine riboswitches...
