Assembly of flagella requires strict hierarchical and temporal control via flagellar sigma and anti-sigma factors, regulatory proteins and the assembly complex itself, but to date non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have not been described to regulate genes directly involved in flagellar assembly. In this study we have investigated the possible role of two ncRNA paralogs (CjNC1, CjNC4) in flagellar assembly and gene regulation of the diarrhoeal pathogen Campylobacter jejuni. CjNC1 and CjNC4 are 37/44 nt identical and predicted to target the 5' untranslated region (5' UTR) of genes transcribed from the flagellar sigma factor σ54.

- Recent research by Mart van Veldhuizen focuses on the role of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in the regulation of flagellar assembly in thermophilic Campylobacter species, particularly Campylobacter jejuni.
- His study highlights the conservation of specific ncRNA paralogs (CjNC1 and CjNC4) and their predicted interactions with σ54-dependent gene targets, emphasizing their potential influence on flagellar gene expression.
- Findings suggest that these ncRNAs could play a crucial role in the complex regulatory networks involved in bacterial motility and pathogenicity, which may have implications for understanding Campylobacter-related diarrheal diseases.
