Directional co-transcriptional folding and pausing create kinetic checkpoints for riboswitch-controlled gene expression

Adrien Chauvier, Javier Cabello‐Villegas, Edward P. Nikonowicz, Nils G. Walter

The paper shows directional co-transcriptional folding and pausing enable selective riboswitch function by stabilizing ligand binding and promoting RNA polymerase readthrough.
