Structural Characterization of the Cotranscriptional Folding of the Thiamin Pyrophosphate Sensing

Riboswitches are RNA-regulating elements that mostly rely on structural changes to modulate gene expression at various levels. Recent studies have revealed that riboswitches may control several regulatory mechanisms cotranscriptionally, i.e., during the transcription elongation of the riboswitch or early in the coding region of the regulated gene. Here, we study the structure of the nascent thiamin pyrophosphate (TPP)-sensing
