High-confidence regulators and/or targets for 24 sRNAs are suggested by the ID-sRnA approach. Upon using the ID-sRnA approach for a set of 91 E. coli sRNAs, both transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation are proposed for 21 sRNAs and post-transcriptional regulation only is suggested for 3. Genomic context of each sRNA is shown, with (i) marked position ranges corresponding to identified motifs for putative high-confidence sRNA-regulating DBPs (repressors as red, activators as green, and dual-functions as blue) (ii) marked ranges corresponding to thermodynamically-predicted binding positions for putative high-confidence mRNA targets (magenta). Arrows indicate position of the TSS.
