Figure 1. E. coli 6S RNA.

Figure 1

Schematic of 6S RNA in a secondary structure supported by phylogenetic and experimental analyses [see Barrick et al, 2005; Trotochaud and Wassarman, 2005]. The sequence in 6S RNA used as a template for synthesis of an RNA product (pRNA) is highlighted in gray. The “upstream region” designates a general region predicted to contain the interaction site for σ70 region 4.2 based on the location of the active site of Eσ70 [Wassarman and Saecker, 2006] and by analogy to promoter DNA.
