Molecular killers in Streptococcus pneumoniae: RNase R and the control of other ribonucleases
| Resumo: | "Streptococcus pneumoniae causes several diseases, namely bacterial pneumonia. Current prevention and therapies are insufficient, and it is a priority to find new solutions. The successful colonization and invasion, by pneumococcus are the result of a number of pathogenic mechanisms tightly coordinated through ribonucleases (RNases). RNase R, RNase III and YbeY are known to have roles in the regulation of virulence genes, in response to stress conditions, and in the maturation of ribosomal RNA (rRNA), affecting protein synthesis.(...)" |
