Popis: | International audience; Staphylococcus aureus is a widespread livestock and human pathogen that colonizes diverse microenvironments within its host. Its adaptation to the environmental conditions encountered within humans relies on coordinated gene expression. This requires a sophisticated regulatory network, among which regulatory RNAs (usually called sRNAs) have emerged as key players over the last 30 years. In S. aureus, sRNAs regulate target genes at the post-transcriptional level through base-pair interactions. The functional characterization of a subset revealed that they participate in all biological processes, including virulence, metabolic adaptation, and antibiotic resistance. In this review, we report 30 years of S. aureus sRNA studies, from their discovery to the in-depth characterizations of some of them. We also discuss their actual in vivo contribution, which is still lagging behind, and their place within the complex regulatory network. These shall be key aspects to consider in order to clearly uncover their in vivo biological functions. |
