The Amyloid Region of Hfq Riboregulator Promotes DsrA:<i>rpoS</i> RNAs Annealing

Hfq is a bacterial RNA chaperone which promotes the pairing of small noncoding RNAs to target mRNAs, allowing post-transcriptional regulation. This RNA annealing activity has been attributed for years to the N-terminal region of the protein that forms a toroidal structure with a typical Sm-fold. Nev...
