The Bacilli-1 RNA motif is a conserved RNA structure that was discovered by bioinformatics.[1] Bacilli-1 motifs are found in Bacilli. Bacilli-1 RNAs likely function in trans as sRNAs.

The previously published F3 sRNA[2] often occurs nearby to Bacilli-1 RNAs. Therefore, it is possible that these distinct sRNA structures function together or have a related biological function.
