The SraE RNA (also known as RygA and RygB and OmrA and OmrB) is a small non-coding RNA that was discovered in E. coli during two large scale screens.[1][2] SraE is highly abundant in stationary phase, but low levels could be detected in exponentially growing cells as well. RygB is adjacent to RygA a closely related RNA. These RNAs bind to the Hfq protein and regulate gene expression by antisense binding. They negatively regulate the expression of several genes encoding outer membrane proteins, including cirA, fecA, fepA and ompT. Taken together, these data suggest that SraE participate in the regulation of outer membrane composition, responding to environmental conditions.[3]
