Predicted secondary structure of candidate regulatory sRNAs confirmed by Northern blotting. Secondary structures were predicted with mfold. Northern blot images are from biofilm samples, y-axis depicts sRNA size, in nucleotides, estimated by RNA ladders run in parallel. CU-rich sequence stretches are indicated in red. For ncS25, a deletion mutant was included in Northern analysis, the band not present in the mutant (grey arrow) corresponds in size to predictions. Full size Northern blot images are presented in Fig. S6.
