Hfq protein from S. aureus with a bound sRNA.

An Hfq binding sRNA is an sRNA that binds the bacterial RNA binding protein called Hfq. A number of bacterial small RNAs which have been shown to bind to Hfq have been characterised (see list). Many of these RNAs share a similar structure composed of three stem-loops.[1] Several studies have expanded this list, and experimentally validated a total of 64 Hfq binding sRNA in Salmonella Typhimurium.[2][3][4] A transcriptome wide study on Hfq binding sites in Salmonella mapped 126 Hfq binding sites within sRNAs.[5] Genomic SELEX has been used to show that Hfq binding RNAs are enriched in the sequence motif 5'-AAYAAYAA-3'.[6]
