RNA folding in the cell occurs during transcription. Expedient RNA folding must avoid the formation of undesirable structures as the nascent RNA emerges from the RNA polymerase. We show that efficient folding during transcription of three conserved non-coding RNAs from E. coli, RNase P RNA, SRP RNA and tmRNA is facilitated by their cognate polym...
