RnaG is a small regulatory non-coding RNA encoded by the virulence plasmid of Shigella flexneri, a Gram-negative pathogenic bacterium that causes human bacillary dysentery. It is a first regulatory RNA characterised in S. flexneri. The RNA is 450 nucleotides long (which makes it one of the largest regulatory sRNAs) and it contains a region with specific secondary structure that interacts with icsA (virG) mRNA and forms a transcription terminator. Acting as antisense, RnaG is transcribed from the complementary strand of its target, icsA mRNA.[1] The activity of the incA protein is crucial for spreading of the bacterial pathogen in the host cells.[2]
