Abstract

Since the turn of the millenium, RNA-based control of gene expression has added an extra dimension to the central dogma of molecular biology. Still, the roles of Mycobacterium tuberculosis regulatory RNAs and the proteins that facilitate their functions remain elusive, although there can be no doubt that RNA biology plays a central role in the baterium's adaptation to its many host environments. In this review, we have presented examples from model organisms and from M. tuberculosis to showcase the abundance and versatility of regulatory RNA, in order to emphasise the importance of these 'fine-tuners' of gene expression.
