Yda O/yua A Leader
The YdaO/YuaA leader is a conserved RNA structure found upstream of the ydaO and yuaA genes in Bacillus subtilis and related genes in other bacteria. The ydaO/yuaA element is thought to act as a genetic "off" switch for the ydaO and yuaA genes in its native state. It is believed that the element may be triggered during osmotic shock leading to activation of ydaO, a predicted amino acid transporter gene, and members of the yuaA-yubG operon which code for KtrA and KtrB K+ transporters.

Famous quotes containing the word leader:
“If you would be a leader of men you must lead your own generation, not the next. Your playing must be good now, while the play is on the boards and the audience in the seats.... It will not get you the repute of a good actor to have excellencies discovered in you afterwards.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
