Sažetak Herein we show how sequences that can form different non-canonical structures affect gene expression levels when inserted in the core of σ70-dependent promoter, between the −35 and −10 elements recognized by RNA polymerase, in E. coli. We note that influence on level of GFP expression varies considerably depending on introduction of non-canonical structural elements in the antisense and sense strands as well as with their propensities to form G-triplex, G-hairpin, hairpin or G-quadruplex structures. Moreover, the extent of repression of expression does not relate to the in vitro thermal stability in a simple manner. Repression is most likely caused by steric interference rather than improper distance between the −35 and −10 elements. Although properties like thermal stability and topology can be somewhat different under in vivo and in vitro conditions, our results suggest that the extent of expression suppression cannot be dependent solely on thermal stabilities of G-rich structures alone.
