From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In molecular biology, Streptococcus sRNAs are
small RNAs produced by species of
Streptococcus bacteria. Several
screens (both computational and experimental) have identified numerous sRNAs in different species and strains of Streptococcus including
S. pneumoniae ,
[1]
[2]
[3]
[4]
S. pyogenes ,
[5]
[6]
[7]
S. agalactiae
[8] and
S.mutans .
[9] The function of most of these is currently unknown, however a few have been characterised including
FasX small RNA .
[10] Many sRNAs have roles in
pathogenesis .
