Pathogenic bacteria need to respond rapidly to changes in their environment to adjust their gene expression and physiology. Johansson and colleagues review the role of RNAs, including 5′ untranslated regions (UTRs), 3′ UTRs,cis-acting antisense RNAs and trans-acting small non-coding RNAs, as regulatory molecules of bacterial virulence.
