Attenuators are generally located in the 5' untranslated regions of genes or operons and combine a Rho-independent terminator, controlling transcription, with an RNA element that senses specific environmental signals. A striking diversity of sensing elements enable regulation of gene expression in response to multiple environmental conditions, including temperature changes, availability of small metabolites (such as ions, amino acids, nucleobases or vitamins), or availability of macromolecules such as tRNAs and regulatory proteins. The wide distribution of attenuators suggests an early emergence among bacteria. However, attenuators also display a great mobility and lability, illustrated by a multiplicity of recent horizontal transfers and duplications. For these reasons, attenuation systems are of high interest both from a fundamental evolutionary perspective and for possible biotechnological applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":87063,"journal":{"name":"Briefings in functional genomics & proteomics","volume":" ","pages":"482-92"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1093/bfgp/elp025","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40007659","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the best efforts of databases such as Rfam, the situation is complicated further by the sparsity of information in many--in particular prokaryotic--RNA families. In this contribution, we review recent efforts to customize sequence-based search tools for ncRNA applications. In particular, semi-global alignments and the development of methods for fragmented pattern search have brought significant practical advances.

This surprising observation challenges many assumptions about the genetic programming of higher organisms and how information is stored and organized within the genome. Moreover, the rapid advances in genomics have given little opportunity for biologists to integrate these emerging findings into their intellectual and experimental frameworks. This problem has been compounded by the perception that genome-wide studies often generate more questions than answers, which in turn has led to confusion and controversy. In this article, we address common questions associated with the phenomenon of pervasive transcription and consider the indices that can be used to evaluate the function (or lack thereof) of the resulting ncRNAs. We suggest that many lines of evidence, including expression profiles, conservation signatures, chromatin modification patterns and examination of increasing numbers of individual cases, argue in favour of the widespread functionality of non-coding transcription. We also discuss how informatic and experimental approaches used to analyse protein-coding genes may not be applicable to ncRNAs and how the general perception that protein-coding genes form the main informational output of the genome has resulted in much of the misunderstanding surrounding pervasive transcription and its potential significance. Finally, we present the conceptual implications of the majority of the eukaryotic genome being functional and describe how appreciating this perspective will provide considerable opportunity to further understand the molecular basis of development and complex diseases.</p>","PeriodicalId":87063,"journal":{"name":"Briefings in functional genomics & proteomics","volume":"8 6","pages":"407-23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1093/bfgp/elp038","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"28414967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the accuracy of structure prediction from single sequences is limited, one often resorts to computing the consensus structure for a set of related RNA sequences. Since functionally important RNA structures are expected to evolve much more slowly than the underlying sequences, the pattern of sequence (co-)variation can be exploited to dramatically improve structure prediction. Since a conserved common structure is only expected when the RNA structure is under selective pressure, consensus structure prediction also provides an ideal starting point for the de novo detection of structured non-coding RNAs.
