The process of transcription termination is essential to proper expression of bacterial genes
and, in many cases, to the regulation of bacterial gene expression. Two types of bacterial …

It is estimated that one third of the human population is infected with Mycobacterium
tuberculosis. Efforts to understand the molecular basis of its gene regulation have been …

Tight coupling of transcription and translation is considered a defining feature of bacterial
gene expression,. The pioneering ribosome can both physically associate and kinetically …

SUMMARY Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria; Xanthomonadales;
Xanthomonadaceae, Xanthomonas. Microbiological properties: Gram‐negative, obligately …

We present WebGeSTer DB, the largest database of intrinsic transcription terminators
(http://pallab. serc. iisc. ernet. in/gester). The database comprises of a million terminators …

Little is known about the decisions behind transcription elongation versus termination in the
human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. TB). By applying Term-seq to M. TB we …

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is a highly successful pathogen that infects over a billion
people. As with most organisms, MTB adapts to stress by modifying its transcriptional profile …

Intrinsic terminators, which encode GC-rich RNA hairpins followed immediately by a 7-to-9-
nucleotide (nt) U-rich “U-tract,” play principal roles of punctuating and regulating …

Abstract Bacterial Rho-independent terminators (RITs) are important genomic landmarks
involved in gene regulation and terminating gene expression. In this investigation we …

The frequently occurring DNA uptake sequence (DUS), recognized as a 10-bp repeat, is
required for efficient genetic transformation in the human pathogens Neisseria meningitidis …
