Regulatory RNAs in Cyanobacteria

The regulatory mechanisms orchestrated by non-coding RNAs have emerged in recent years as ubiquitous in all living beings. In particular, bacterial responses to virtually any stress involve alterations in the abundance of certain species of small RNAs and/or antisense RNAs (noncoding strand). Our group aims to identify and analyze the regulatory mechanisms mediated by non-coding RNAs in cyanobacteria.
