RNA switches are regulatory systems that rely on alternative mRNA structures.

RNA switches may be triggered by proteins, tRNAs (T-box), or metabolites (riboswitches)

List of Bacillus subtilis RNAswitches

  • Protein-dependent RNA switches
  • Potential additional RNA switches

The function of these potential RNA structures is unknown. They were suggested to control the mentioned genes.
