The Rhodo-rpoB RNA motif is a conserved RNA structure that was discovered by bioinformatics.[1] Rhodo-rpoB motifs are found in Rhodobacterales.
Rhodo-rpoB motif RNAs likely function as cis-regulatory elements, in view of their positions upstream of protein-coding genes. The apparently regulated genes encode subunits of RNA polymerase.
