Listeria Hfq binding LhrC this ncRNA was identified by screening for RNA molecules which co-immunoprecipitated with the RNA chaperone Hfq.[1] This RNA is transcribed from an intergenic region between the protein coding genes cysK, a putative cysteine synthase and sul, a putative dihydropteroate synthase. In Listeria monocytogenes four additional copies of lhrC have been identified in the genome, three of which are located in tandem repeat upstream of the originally characterised lhrC. This RNA molecule appears to be conserved amongst Listeria species but has not been identified in other bacterial species. It is involved in virulence.[2]
