Functional Characterization Of Styr-3 Non-Protein-Coding Rna (npcRNA) In Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi

Non-protein-coding RNAs (npcRNAs) are RNA molecules that do not encode for proteins but are involved in modulating a myriad of cell regulatory processes, including bacterial drug resistance mechanisms. In this study, a novel npcRNA, StyR-3; discovered from the genome of S. Typhi was selected for fur...
