Freshwater-1 RNA motif explained
| freshwater-1 |
| Symbol: | freshwater-1 |
| Rfam: | RF02979 |
| Rna Type: | Gene
- sRNA
|
The freshwater-1 RNA motif is a conserved RNA structure that was discovered by bioinformatics.[1] Freshwater-1 motifs are found in metagenomic sequences isolated from bacteria in Freshwater and estuary environments.Freshwater-1 RNAs likely function in trans as small RNAs. Most freshwater-1 RNAs are located between tRNA genes, although no similarity between freshwater-1 RNAs and tRNAs has been observed, as of 2018.
