Status of sRNA-mRNA interaction data in E. coli K12 MG1655. a Schematic representation of the arbitrary subdivision of mRNAs used in this work. 5’-UTR, coding DNA sequence (CDS-5’, middle (CDS-M), CDS-3’), 3’-UTR). b Upper panel: sRNAs archived in BSRB were classified according to the status of knowledge regarding their interactions with target mRNAs: characterized interaction (Char), uncharacterized interaction (Non-char), or unknown (sRNA) (Fig. 1B). Lower panel: interactions found in BSRD were also classified as empirical or predicted according to the method used for their determination. c Comparison of the distributions of predicted (this work) and characterized (BSDR) interactions of the various segments of the mRNAs. d Distributions of empirical and predicted binding energies of sRNA-mRNA interactions. Nt indicates for nucleotides
