Models of Hfq interactions with small non-coding RNA in Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria

Hfq is required by many Gram-negative bacteria to chaperone the interaction between small non-coding RNA (sRNA) and mRNA to facilitate annealing. Conversely and despite the presence of Hfq in many Gram-positive bacteria, sRNAs in Gram-positive bacteria bind the mRNA target independent of Hfq. Detail...
