    regulatory mechanism

  • [regulon|FMN-box|FMN-box]: transcription termination, via [protein|C245476CE35028167510F67153F392D91447553F|MgtE riboswitch], sequestration of the Shine-Dalgarno sequence in the presence of FMN or FMNH2, this is counter-acted upon binding of [protein|3D32B6C1DC9CAC615B02E14EA846648C3B0E61D6|RibR], in [regulon|FMN-box|FMN-box]
  • regulation

  • expressed in the absence of FMN ([protein|search|FMN-box]) [Pubmed|17693491]
  • additional information

  • the mRNA is substantially stabilized upon depletion of [gene|872CCB5A49C9000BD95E4B0472556D5F60F7D7A4|RNase Y] [PubMed|21815947]
