Nonetheless, it was proposed that this RNA could be a cis-regulatory element, an attractive hypothesis in view of the fact that rRNA methyltransferases can bind RNA, and therefore presumably the 23S methyl RNA. This regulatory strategy is common in bacteria to control levels of ribosomal subunits, using RNA motifs called ribosomal leaders. Additionally, 23S methyl RNAs have rho-independent transcription terminators downstream, which could be a mechanism of regulation.[1] The 23S methyl RNA is found exclusively in the order of bacteria called Lactobacillales.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{cite journal |vauthors=Weinberg Z, Barrick JE, Yao Z |title=Identification of 22 candidate structured RNAs in bacteria using the CMfinder comparative genomics pipeline |journal=Nucleic Acids Res. |volume=35 |issue=14 |pages=4809–19 |year=2007 |pmid=17621584 |pmc=1950547 |doi=10.1093/nar/gkm487 |url=|display-authors=etal}} External links
