AtoC RNA motif

atoC RNA
Consensus secondary structure of atoC RNAs
Identifiers
Symbol atoC
Rfam RF01733
Other data
RNA type cis-regulatory element
Domain(s) deltaproteobacteria

The atoC RNA motif is a conserved RNA-like structure identified by bioinformatics.[1] It consistently appears upstream of protein-coding gene that are predicted to encode oxidoreductase activity, dihydropteroate synthase (part of folate metabolism) or DNA-binding response regulators.
