Molecular model of the glmS ribozyme complexed with glucosamine-6-phosphate. This molecule functions as both a ribozyme,an RNA (ribonucleic acid) with enzymatic activity,and a riboswitch,a segment of RNA that acts a regulator of gene expression. Binding of glucosamine-6-phosphate,the product of the glms enzyme,cleaves the ribozyme leading to lower production of the enzyme when glucosamine-6-phosphate concentrations are high | |
