Hey! I am currently writing my dissertation on riboswitches and noticed that there is a mistake on this webpage: A T-box is not a riboswitch, even though it binds to the 5' untranslated region. The tRNA interacts with the UTR via Watson-Crick base-pairing, which differs from the typical aptamer-metabolite interactions. If you read through the papers, a T-box is just another RNA-mediated control of gene expression as miRNA-regulation or temperature-dependent modulation of mRNA.
