The Chloroflexi-1 RNA motif is a conserved
RNA
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a polymeric molecule essential in various biological roles in coding, decoding, regulation and expression of genes. RNA and deoxyribonucleic acid ( DNA) are nucleic acids. Along with lipids, proteins, and carbohydra ...

Bioinformatics () is an interdisciplinary field that develops methods and software tools for understanding biological data, in particular when the data sets are large and complex. As an interdisciplinary field of science, bioinformatics combi ...
within the species ''
Chloroflexus aggregans''.
''C. aggregans'' has three predicted Chloroflexi-1 RNAs, which are located nearby to one another. This arrangement might suggest a repetitive element. ''C. aggregans'' is classified as belonging to the
bacterial phylum
Chloroflexota
The Chloroflexota are a phylum of bacteria containing isolates with a diversity of phenotypes, including members that are aerobic thermophiles, which use oxygen and grow well in high temperatures; anoxygenic phototrophs, which use light for photo ...
