Target Background

Function
RNA chaperone that binds small regulatory RNA (sRNAs) and mRNAs to facilitate mRNA translational regulation in response to envelope stress, environmental stress and changes in metabolite concentrations. Involved in the regulation of stress responses mediated by the sigma factors RpoS, sigma-E and sigma-32. Binds with high specificity to tRNAs. Binds sRNA antitoxin RalA. In vitro, stimulates synthesis of long tails by poly(A) polymerase I. Required for RNA phage Qbeta replication. Seems to play a role in persister cell formation; upon overexpression decreases persister cell formation while deletion increases persister formation.
Gene References into Functions
  1. By interacting with the mutS leader, Hfq serves as a critical switch that modulates bacteria from high-fidelity DNA replication to stress-induced mutagenesis PMID: 28794186
  2. Here, de novo Rosetta modeling and competitive binding experiments show that the acidic tip of the Escherichia coli Hfq CTD transiently binds the basic Sm core residues necessary for RNA annealing. PMID: 28826489
  3. Compaction and condensation of DNA mediated by the C-terminal domain of Hfq has been reported. PMID: 28521053
  4. Global mapping of small RNA-Hfq target interactions have been described in the bacterial genome. PMID: 27588604
  5. We describe a refined system - consisting solely of purified Hfq, polynucleotide phosporylase (PNP) and ADP - that allows reconstitution in vitro of characteristic 'SDS-insensitive' Hfq6-Hfq6 assemblies observed in experiments with whole-cell extracts obtained from exponentially-growing cells. We also optimized conditions for the extraction of intact native dodecameric Hfq complexes. PMID: 28366634
  6. The 3' terminal oligo(U) stretch and the base-pairing region enable small RNA to interact with Hfq. PMID: 26531825
  7. Hfq has at least two distinct ways in which it interacts with sRNAs; these different binding properties have strong effects on the stability of the sRNA in vivo and the sequence requirements of regulated mRNAs. PMID: 26373314
  8. The authors show that an interaction between the distal surface of Hfq and the ribosome-binding site of IS10 transposase mRNA (RNA-IN) is required for repressing translation initiation of the transposase. PMID: 25649688
  9. This study demonstrated that random-order binding of Hfq to sRNA and mRNA in each pair can cause high Hfq concentrations to suppress rather than promote sRNA activity in Escherichia coli. PMID: 26261213
  10. Study shows that Hfq does not affect the transcriptional readthrough event itself; also find that the readthrough products no longer bind to Hfq in vivo. PMID: 26106215
  11. these results suggest that Hfq could function as an anchor/coupling factor responsible for de-solubilization of RNA and its tethering to the degradosome complex. PMID: 25896386
  12. The study verified that the A-rich linker region of OxyS sRNA binds Hfq at its distal side. PMID: 25670676
  13. Data show that the mRNA wraps entirely around the host Ffactor 1 protein Hfq protein, specifically contacting both surfaces. PMID: 25404287
  14. The data indicated that the simultaneous binding to the opposite faces of Hfq was enabled by separate adenosine-rich and uridine-rich sequences in the long, single-stranded region of ChiX. PMID: 25582129

  16. Hfq acts as the repressor of cirA mRNA translation in the absence of sRNA. PMID: 24065131
  17. Based on the results presented here, we suggest that Hfq could be involved in regulating RNA pairing in other antisense systems, including systems encoded by other transposable elements. PMID: 23510801
  18. Thus, Hfq is intrinsically essential to pathogenic Escherichia coli for survival and virulence exerted in the Caenorhabditis elegans host. PMID: 22713744
  19. The authors show that Hfq is most active in RNA annealing when the hexamer is present. PMID: 22326348

  21. expression of hfq was repressed by the CRP-cAMP complex. PMID: 21840983
  22. the purification, crystallization and structural data of the full 102-amino-acid protein are presented. These data revealed that the presence of the C-terminus changes the crystal packing of E. coli Hfq PMID: 21543856
  23. Results revealed that the C-terminus of Hfq is intrinsically disordered and flexible, which appears to contribute to the interactions of Hfq with RNA substrates. PMID: 21330354
  24. role of Hfq in LF82 virulence was independent of its function in regulating RpoS and RpoE activity PMID: 21298102
  25. Hfq negatively regulate Tn10/IS10 transposition by promoting anti-sense inhibition of RNA-IN10 translation. PMID: 20815820
  26. Hfq mediates the binding of sRNAs to their target mRNAs; without Hfq, most sRNAs cannot efficiently regulate target mRNA expression. PMID: 21189298
  27. examined the ability of Hfq derivatives, consisting of the conserved core and short C-terminal extensions, to support the regulation of rpoS expression and riboregulation by various well-characterized small regulatory RNAs PMID: 20888338
  28. LEE regulator (GrlA) is critically involved in the regulating the presence of L0045. PMID: 20587027

  30. The alteration of rpsO, rpsT and rpsB-tsf transcript levels observed under conditions of Hfq deficiency is not caused by the post-transcriptional events. PMID: 20167073
