The Gram-negative plant-pathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria
(Xcv) is an important model to elucidate the mechanisms involved in the interaction with the …

Iron is an essential element required for the growth and survival of nearly all forms of life. It
serves as a catalytic component in multiple enzymatic reactions, such as photosynthesis …

Over the past few decades, regulatory RNAs, such as small RNAs (sRNAs), have received
increasing attention in the context of host-microbe interactions due to their diverse roles in …

Small noncoding RNAs (sRNAs) are ubiquitous posttranscriptional regulators of gene
expression. Using the model plant-pathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv …

The widespread Mn2+-sensing yybP-ykoY riboswitch controls the expression of bacterial
Mn2+ homeostasis genes. Here, we first determine the crystal structure of the ligand-bound …

Bacterial, small RNAs were once regarded as potent regulators of gene expression and are
now being considered as essential for their diversified roles. Many small RNAs are now …
