Mycolactone-Riboswitch
Riboswitch specific for Mycolactone. Consists of an Aptamer-sequence, a spacer region, a terminator and a U-Stretch.
In the absence of Mycolactone the terminator-sequence will bind to the aptamer-sequence and form a hairpin, which will cause the RNA-Polymerase to dissociate from the DNA-strand.
In the presence of Mycolactone it will bind to the Aptamer-sequence and loosen the hairpin structure and the RNA-Polymerase can transcribe.
